“Often while playing, playing good, inoffensive, permissible games, I became too excited and violent for my sisters to put up with; this led to arguments and unhappiness, and when anger overcame me at such times, I was a terror, doing and saying things whose vileness I felt deeply and painfully at the very moment I did and said them. Then came vexing, dark hours of regret and contrition, and then the awful moment when I asked to be forgiven”

Demian • Hermann Hesse

““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

“Possessions are generally diminished by possession.”

The Gay Science • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

“Variant translation: Your question, Mr. Examining Magistrate, as to whether I am a house-painter — although you did not ask a question at all, you made a statement — typifies exactly the kind of proceedings that are being instituted against me.”

The Trial • Franz Kafka

“Scandal is gossip made tedious by morality.”

Lady Windermere's Fan • Oscar Wilde
