The statement that best expresses a theme of the passage from "The Idiot" by Fyodor Dostoevsky would depend on the specific content of the passage you're referring to. However, if we are considering general themes often present in Dostoevsky's work, option **B** could be a potential fit, as it reflects the notion of human connection and understanding found in unexpected places, which aligns with key themes in Dostoevsky’s exploration of human relationships and experiences.
If the passage emphasizes themes of friendship and commonality among disparate characters, **B** is likely the best choice. However, if the theme is leaning towards behavior and consequences, then you might consider **A** instead.
To select the best answer, consider the focus of the passage you have in mind.
