Image
You are so vulnerably haunting. Your eeriness is terrifyingly irresistible.
Franz Kafka
Image
One can disintegrate the world by means of very strong light. For weak eyes the world becomes solid, for still weaker eyes it seems to develop fists, for eyes weaker still it becomes shamefaced and smashes anyone who dares to gaze upon it.
Franz Kafka
Image
I carry the bars within me.
Franz Kafka
Image
Paths are made by walking
Franz Kafka

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
Image
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
Image
Simply wait, be quiet, still The world will freely offer itself to you.
Franz Kafka
Image
The spirit becomes free only when it ceases to be a support.
Franz Kafka
Image
there is nothing bad to fear once you have crossed that threshold, all is well. Another world, and you do not have to speak
Franz Kafka
Image
Anyone who renounces the world must love all men, for he renounces their world too. He thus begins to have some inkling of the true nature of man, which cannot but be loved, always assuming that one is its peer.
Franz Kafka
Image
He was a tool of the boss, without brains or backbone.
Franz Kafka
Image
No matter how much you keep encouraging someone who is blindfolded to stare through the cloth, he still won’t see a thing..
Franz Kafka
Image
In one and the same human being there are cognitions that, however utterly dissimilar they are, yet have one and the same object,so that one can only conclude that there are different subjects in one and the same human being.
Franz Kafka
Image
Two possibilities: making oneself infinitely small or being so. The second is perfection, that is to say, inactivity, the first is beginning, that is to say, action.
Franz Kafka
Image
Don't despair, not even over the fact that you don't despair.
Franz Kafka
