That would be sad only if there were anything apart from the soul, but there is nothing else.
Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka
Don't despair, not even over the fact that you don't despair.
Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka
We all have wings, but they have not been of any avail to us and if we could tear them off, we would do so.
Franz Kafka
In the struggle between yourself and the world second the world.
Franz Kafka
How can one take delight in the world unless one flees to it for refuge?
Franz Kafka
