More quotes by Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka
From a certain point onward there is no longer any turning back. That is the point that must be reached.
Franz Kafka
Writers speak stench.
Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka
Do not waste your time looking for an obstacle - maybe there is none.
Franz Kafka
Human nature, essentially changeable, as unstable as the dust, can endure no restraint if it binds itself it soon begins to tear madly at its bonds, until it rends everything asunder, the wall, the bonds, and its very self.
Franz Kafka
Evil is whatever distracts.
Franz Kafka
Art flies around truth, but with the definite intention of not getting burnt. Its capacity lies in finding in the dark void a place where the beam of light can be intensely caught, without this having been perceptible before.
Franz Kafka
The founder brought the laws from the lawgiver the faithful are meant to announce the laws to the lawgiver.
Franz Kafka
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
We need the books that affect us like a disaster
Franz Kafka
Photography concentrates one's eye on the superficial. For that reason it obscures the hidden life which glimmers through the outlines of things like a play of light and shade. One can't catch that even with the sharpest lens.
