“You know these things as thoughts, but your thoughts are not your experiences, they are an echo and after-effect of your experiences: as when your room trembles when a carriage goes past. I however am sitting in the carriage, and often I am the carriage itself.

― Friedrich Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra

“And it was like knocking four quick times on the door of unhappiness.”
― Albert Camus, The Stranger
