You too have weapons.

From a certain point onward there is no longer any turning back. That is the point that must be reached.
Franz Kafka
Image
Human judgment of human actions is true and void , that is to say, first true and then void.... The judgment of the word is true, the judgment in itself is void.... Only he who is a party can really judge, but as a party he cannot judge. Hence it follows that there is no possibility of judgment in the world, only a glimmer of it.

Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka
Image
Hold fast to the diary from today on! Write regularly! Don't surrender! Even if no salvation should come, I want to be worthy of it every moment.
Franz Kafka
Image
Do not waste your time looking for an obstacle - maybe there is none.
Franz Kafka
Image
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
Image
I do not see the world at all I invent it.
Franz Kafka
Image
If the literature we are reading does not wake us, why then do we read it? A literary work must be an ice-axe to break the sea frozen inside us.
Franz Kafka
Image
Because of impatience we were driven out [of Paradise] because of impatience we cannot return.
Franz Kafka
Image
Don't despair, not even over the fact that you don't despair.
Franz Kafka
Image
He who seeks does not find, but he who does not seek will be found.
Franz Kafka
Image
There are only two things. Truth and lies. Truth is indivisible, hence it cannot recognize itself anyone who wants to recognize it has to be a lie.
Franz Kafka

Youth is happy because it has the capacity to see beauty.
