Hermann Hesse
“Every man is more than just himself; he also represents the unique, the very special and always significant and remarkable point at which the world's phenomena intersect, only once in this way, and never again. That is why every man's story is important, eternal, sacred; that is why every man, as long as he lives and fulfills the will of nature, is wondrous, and worthy of consideration. In each individual the spirit has become flesh, in each man the creation suffers, within each one a redeemer is nailed to the cross.”
Hermann Hesse , Demian: Die Geschichte von Emil Sinclairs Jugend

Jorge Luis Borges
“Si el honor y la sabiduría y la felicidad no son para mí, que sean para otros. Que el cielo exista, aunque mi lugar sea el infierno”
Jorge Luis Borges , Ficciones

Thomas à Kempis
“In omnibus requiem quaesivi, et nusquam inveni nisi in angulo cum libro”
Tommaso da Kempis

J.D. Salinger
“I can’t explain what I mean. And even if I could, I’m not sure I’d feel like it.”
J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye

Franz Kafka
“I am free and that is why I am lost.”
Franz Kafka
