“Many a book is like a key to unknown chambers within the castle of one’s own self.”
― Franz Kafka

“Any one who falls in love is searching for the missing pieces of themselves. So anyone who’s in love gets sad when they think of their lover. It’ like stepping back inside a room you have fond memories of, one you haven’t seen in a long time. It’s just a natural feeling. You’re not the person who discovered that feeling, so don’t try to patent it, okay?”
― Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

“It's only because of their stupidity that they're able to be so sure of themselves.”
― Franz Kafka, The Trial

“The eye sees only what the mind is prepared to comprehend.”
― Robertson Davies, Tempest-Tost
