Tolstoy question

Dear Tolstoy scholars and lovers,

I remember, inexactly, a quote from Tolstoy, probably his notebooks of the
1850s or 1860s.  It goes something like this, «Все что ни делает человек,
он делает по требованиям всей своей природы, а ум только подставляет свои
причины.»   Does that ring a bell?  Could any of you direct me to the exact
quote and exact source?
Any help would be very much appreciated.  I have tried google and yandex
but did not find it.

Many thanks in advance!

Svetlana Grenier
