More quotes by Max Frisch
Finished things cease to be a shelter for the spirit but work in progress is a delight.
Max Frisch
I live, like every real man, in my work.
Max Frisch
It's precisely the disappointing stories, which have no proper ending and therefore no proper meaning, that sound true to life.
Max Frisch
When you say a friend has a sense of humor do you mean that he makes you laugh, or that he can make you laugh?
Max Frisch
A real life, a life that leaves a deposit in the shape of something alive.... It's difficult to say what makes a life a real life.... You could also say it depends on a person being identical with himself.
Max Frisch
Either marriage is a destiny, I believe, or there is no sense in it at all, it's a piece of humbug.
Max Frisch

Max Frisch
It is conceivable at least that a late generation, such as we presumably are, has particular need of the sketch, in order not to be strangled to death by inherited conceptions which preclude new births.... The sketch has direction, but no ending the sketch as reflection of a view of life that is no longer conclusive, or is not yet conclusive.
Max Frisch
You can put anything into words, except your own life.
Max Frisch
It is only the consciousness of a nonexistence which allows us to realize for moments that we are living.
Max Frisch
Perhaps there are only a few women who experience without deception the overwhelming intoxication of the senses which they expectfrom their encounters with men, which they feel bound to expect because of the fuss made about it in novels, written by men.
Max Frisch
If anyone has a conscience it's generally a guilty one.
Max Frisch
Every uniform corrupts one's character.
Max Frisch
Primitive peoples tried to annul death by portraying the human body--we do it by finding substitutes for the human body. Technology instead of mysticism!
Max Frisch
Jealousy is the fear of comparison.
Max Frisch
There is no art without Eros.
Max Frisch
