See All“When... in the course of all these thousands of years has man ever acted in accordance with his own interests?”
Notes from Underground • Fyodor Dostoevski“The church is precisely that against which Jesus preached -- and against which he taught his disciples to fight.”
Unpublished fragment • Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche““Come, fill the Cup, and in the fire of Spring / Your Winter-garment of Repentance fling: / The Bird of Time has but a little way / To flutter — and the Bird is on the Wing.””
Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam • Omar Khayyam“This village belongs to the Castle, and whoever lives here or passes the night here does so in a manner of speaking in the Castle itself. Nobody may do that without the Count's permission.”
The Castle • Franz Kafka“How much better is silence; the coffee cup, the table. How much better to sit by myself like the solitary sea-bird that opens its wings on the stake. Let me sit here for ever with bare things, this coffee cup, this knife, this fork, things in themselves, myself being myself.”
The Waves • Virginia Woolf
