FRANZ KAFKA

Was he an animal, that music could move him so? He felt as if the way to the unknown nourishment he longed for were coming to light.
FRANZ KAFKA

Animal Himself Light Music

You are at once both the quiet and the confusion of my heart; imagine my heartbeat when you are in this state.

Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old.

I do not speak as I think, I do not think as I should, and so it all goes on in helpless darkness.
FRANZ KAFKA

A non-writing writer is a monster courting insanity.
FRANZ KAFKA

Sanity Writing
I’m thinking only of my illness and my health, though both, the first as well as the second, are you.
