People label themselves with all sorts of adjectives. I can only pronounce myself as ‘nauseatingly miserable beyond repair’.

Franz Kafka

Books are a narcotic.
FRANZ KAFKA

Love is, that you are the knife which I plunge into myself.
FRANZ KAFKA

Deep Love Myself
I am dirty, Milena, endlessly dirty, that is why I make such a fuss about cleanliness. None sing as purely as those in deepest hell; it is their singing we take for the singing of angels.
FRANZ KAFKA

You are at once both the quiet and the confusion of my heart.

FRANZ KAFKA

You do not need to leave your room. Remain sitting at your table and listen. Do not even listen, simply wait, be quiet, still and solitary. The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked, it has no choice, it will roll in ecstasy at your feet.
FRANZ KAFKA

Choice Freedom Happiness Leaving Listen Need Quiet Simplicity Wait World Yourself
Written kisses don’t reach their destination, rather they are drunk on the way by the ghosts.
