More quotes by Franz Kafka
Follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.
Franz Kafka
I write differently from what I speak, I speak differently from what I think, I think differently from the way I ought to think, and so it all proceeds into deepest darkness.
Franz Kafka
Going to pieces. To go to pieces so pointlessly and unnecessarily.
Franz Kafka
The crows maintain that a single crow could destroy the heavens. There is no doubt of that, but it proves nothing against the heavens, for heaven simply means: the impossibility of crows.
Franz Kafka
In man's struggle against the world, bet on the world.
Franz Kafka
I miss you deeply, unfathomably, senselessly, terribly.
Franz Kafka
There they lay, but not in the forgetfulness of the previous night. She was seeking and he was seeking, they raged and contorted their faces and bored their heads into each others bosom in the urgency of seeking something, and their embraces and their tossing limbs did not avail to make them forget, but only reminded them of what they sought
Franz Kafka
I dream of a grave, deep and narrow, where we could clasp each other in our arms as with clamps, and I would hide my face in you and you would hide your face in me, and nobody would ever see us any more
Franz Kafka
We are sinful not only because we have eaten of the Tree of Knowledge, but also because we have not yet eaten of the Tree of Life. The state in which we are is sinful, irrespective of guilt.
Franz Kafka
This tremendous world I have inside of me. How to free myself, and this world, without tearing myself to pieces. And rather tear myself to a thousand pieces than be buried with this world within me.
Franz Kafka
I answer one of your letters, then lie in bed in apparent calm, but my heart beats through my entire body and is conscious only of you. I belong to you there is really no other way of expressing it, and that is not strong enough.
Franz Kafka
Suffering is the positive element in this world, indeed it is the only link between this world and the positive.
Franz Kafka
A belief is like a guillotine, just as heavy, just as light.
Franz Kafka
I do not see the world at all I invent it.
Franz Kafka
For words are magical formulae. They leave finger marks be hind on the brain, which in the twinkling of an eye become the footprints of history. One ought to watch one' s every word.
Franz Kafka
I won't give up the diary again. I must hold on here, it is the only place I can.
Franz Kafka
Heaven is dumb, echoing only the dumb.
Franz Kafka
My doubts stand in a circle around every word, I see them before I see the word, but what then! I do not see the word at all, I invent it.
Franz Kafka
I, however, cannot force myself to use meat drugs to cheat on my loneliness.
Franz Kafka
One reads in order to ask questions
