Candide • Voltaire“What an obstacle had suddenly arisen to block K.'s career! And this was the moment when he was supposed to work for the bank? He looked down at his desk. This the time to interview clients and negotiate with them?

It looked like a kind of torture sanctioned by the Court, arising from his case and concomitant with it.”
The Trial • Franz Kafka“Everything is in a state of metamorphosis. Thou thyself art in everlasting change and in corruption to correspond; so is the whole universe.”
Meditations • Marcus Aurelius
