“My life appeared to me as unnatural, uncertain and incredible as the design on the pencase I am using at this moment. It seems that a painter who has been possessed, perhaps a perfectionist, has painted the cover of this pencase. Often, when I look at this design, it seems familiar; perhaps it is because of this design that I write or perhaps this design makes me write.”
The Blind Owl • Sadegh Hedayat““It’s always difficult to be born. As you know, the bird must make an effort to break out of the egg. Think back and ask: Was the path really that difficult? Merely difficult? Wasn’t it also beautiful? Could you have thought of a more beautiful or easier one?””
Demian • Hermann Hesse“And life itself spoke this secret to me. "Behold," it said, "I am that which must ever overcome itself."”
Thus Spoke Zarathustra • F Nietzsche“Man is a substantial emigrant on a pilgrimage of being, and it is accordingly meaningless to set limits to what he is capable of being.”
History as a System • Jose Ortega y Gasset“Whatever a woman's reason may say, her feelings tell her the truth.”
Twenty-Four Hours in the Life of a Woman • Stefan Zweig
