“The sweetness of many things from that time still stirs and touches me with melancholy: dark and well-lighted alleys, houses and towers, chimes and faces, rooms rich and comfortable, warm and relaxed, rooms pregnant with secrets. Everything bears the scent of warm intimacy, servant girls, household remedies, and dried fruits.”

Demian • Hermann Hesse

“"Whenever they began to talk of the need to earn money, Gregor would always first let go of the door and then throw himself onto the cool, leather sofa next to it, as he became quite hot with shame and regret."”

Metamorphosis and Other Stories • Franz Kafka

“Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worst kind of suffering.”

By The River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept  • Paulo Coelho

“He only is anxious about the future, to whom the present is unprofitable.”

Ad Lucilium Epistulae Morales • Lucius Annaeus Seneca

“Too chaste a youth leads to a dissolute old age.”

Autumn Leaves • Andre Gide
