““…and I am here just like I was in Vienna and your hand is in my own as long as you leave it there.” (29th July 1920)”
Letters To Milena • Franz Kafka“I was brought up in the Christian religion, and although I can scarcely sanction all the improper attempts to gain the emancipation of woman, all paganlike reminiscences also seem foolish to me. My brief and simple opinion is that woman is certainly as good as man-period. Any more discursive elaboration of the difference between the sexes or deliberation on which sex is superior is an idle intellectual occupation for loafers and bachelors.”
Stages on Life's Way • Soren Kierkegaard“Everything that needs to be said has already been said. But since no one was listening, everything must be said again.”
Autumn Leaves • Andre Gide“There is nothing that so raises a young man's self-esteem, that so contributes to the formation of his character as for him to find himself unexpectedly confronted with a task which he has to accomplish entirely on his own initiative and by his own efforts.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig“Shun no toil to make yourself remarkable by some talent or other; yet do not devote yourself to one branch exclusively; strive to get clear notions about all; give up no science entirely, for science is but one.”
Day's Collacon • Lucius Annaeus Seneca
