““Maman died today. Or yesterday maybe, I don’t know. I got a telegram from the home: ‘Mother deceased. Funeral tomorrow. Faithfully yours.’ That doesn’t mean anything. Maybe it was yesterday.””
Stranger • Albert Camus“Sin is whatever obscures the soul.”
The Pastoral Symphony • Andre Gide“My feelings, gratitude, for instance, are denied me simply because of my social position.”
The Karamazov Brothers • Fyodor Dostoevski“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“A monk should surely love his books with humility, wishing their good and not the glory of his own curiosity; but what the temptation of adultery is for laymen and the yearning for riches is for secular ecclesiastics, the seduction of knowledge is for monks.”
The Name of The Rose • Umberto Eco
