“The dream arises from a part of the mind unknown to us, but none the less important, and is concerned with the desires for the approaching day.”

Psychology of the Unconscious • Carl Gustav Jung

“When authors write novels, they usually act as if they were God and could completely survey and comprehend”

Demian • Hermann Hesse

“You want to have proven to you that the soul is imperishable and immortal, and you think that the philosopher who is confident in death has but a vain and foolish confidence, if he thinks that he will fare better than one who has led another sort of life, in the world below, unless he can prove this; and you say that the strength and divinity of the soul, and of her existence prior to our becoming men, does not necessarily imply her immortality. ...For any man, who is not devoid of natural feeling, has reason to fear, if he has no knowledge or proof of the soul's immortality. That is what I suppose you to say, Cebes, which I designedly repeat, in order that nothing may escape us...”

The Trials Of Socrates • Plato

“Someone must have been telling lies about Joseph K., for without having done anything wrong he was arrested one fine morning. His landlady's cook, who always brought him his breakfast at eight o'clock, failed to appear on this occasion. That had never happened before.”

The Trial • Franz Kafka

“I quote others only in order the better to express myself. ”

Essays • Michel De Montaigne
