More quotes by Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka
Productivity is being able to do things that you were never able to do before.
Franz Kafka
Association with human beings lures one into self-observation.
Franz Kafka
The Bible is a sanctum the world, sputum.
Franz Kafka
He who seeks does not find, but he who does not seek will be found.
Franz Kafka
In the fight between you and the world, back the world.
Franz Kafka
All I am is literature, and I am not able or willing to be anything else.
Franz Kafka
The Fathers of the Church were not afraid to go out into the desert because they had a richness in their hearts. But we, with richness all around us, are afraid, because the desert is in our hearts.
Franz Kafka
We are separated from God on two sides the Fall separates us from Him, the Tree of Life separates Him from us.

Franz Kafka
The limited circle is pure.
Franz Kafka
I have hardly anything in common with myself and should stand very quietly in a corner, content that I can breathe.
Franz Kafka
If it had been possible to build the Tower of Babel without climbing it, it would have been permitted.
Franz Kafka
The man in ecstasy and the man drowning: both raise their arms.
Franz Kafka
The notion of the infinite expanse and copiousness of the cosmos is the result of the mixture, carried to the extreme limit, of laborious creation and free self-determination.
Franz Kafka
Anyone who loves his neighbor within the limits of the world is doing no more and no less injustice than someone who loves himself within the limits of the world.
Franz Kafka
There are two main human sins from which all the others derive: impatience and indolence. It was because of impatience that they were expelled from Paradise it is because of indolence that they do not return. Yet perhaps there is only one major sin: impatience. Because of impatience they were expelled, because of impatience they do not return.
Franz Kafka
Man cannot live without a permanent trust in something indestructible in himself, though both the indestructible element and the trust may remain permanently hidden from him. One of the ways in which this hiddenness can express itself is through faith in a personal god.
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
I believe that we should read only those books that bite and sting us. If a book we are reading does not rouse us with a blow to the head, then why read it?
Franz Kafka
