“After experiencing profound emotions, one sleeps profoundly.”
Beware of Pity • Stefan Zweig““That’s not the point, Milena, as far as I’m concerned you’re not a woman, you’re a girl, I’ve never seen anyone who was more of a girl than you, and girl that you are, I don’t dare offer you my hand, my dirty, twitching, clawlike, fidgety, unsteady, hot-cold hand.””
Letters To Milena • Franz Kafka“There is always more misery among the lower classes than there is humanity in the higher.”
Les Misérables • VICTOR HUGO“Translating from one language to another, unless it is from Greek and Latin, the queens of all languages, is like looking at Flemish tapestries from the wrong side, for although the figures are visible, they are covered by threads that obscure them, and cannot be seen with the smoothness and color of the right side.”
Don Quixote • Miguel De Cervantes““Those who have forgotten where the road leads.” “They are at odds with what is all around them”—the all-directing logos. And “they find alien what they meet with every day.” ”
Book IV • Marcus Aurelius
