August Strindberg

August Strindberg

August Strindberg
No matter how far we travel, the memories will follow in the baggage car.
August Strindberg
Because in the midst of happiness there is always a seed of unhappiness it consumes itself like fire--it can't burn forever, sooner or later it must die and this presentiment of the end destroys my happiness when it is at is height.
August Strindberg
What is economics? A science invented by the upper class in order to acquire the fruits of the labor of the underclass
August Strindberg
Why is it so painful to watch a person sink? Because there is something unnatural in it, for nature demands personal progress, evolution, and every backward step means wasted energy.
August Strindberg
It's wonderful how, the moment you talk about God and love, your voice becomes hard, and your eyes fill with hatred. No, Margret, you certainly haven't the true faith.
August Strindberg
Happiness consumes itself like a flame. It cannot burn for ever, it must go out, and the presentiment of its end destroys it at its very peak.
August Strindberg
