Edgar Allan Poe
“erstaunlich, dass der Mensch nur hinter einer Maske ganz er selbst ist.”
Edgar Allan Poe

Jostein Gaarder
“I don't belong anywhere.
I am neither a heart, a diamond, a club, nor a spade. I am neither a King, a Jack, an Eight, nor an Ace.
As I am here - I am merely the Joker, and who that is I have had to find out for myself.

Every time I toss my head, the jingling bells remind me that I have no family.
I have no number - and no trade either.
I have gone around observing your activities from the outside.
Because of this I have also been able to see things to which you have been blind.

Every morning you have gone to work, but you have never been fully awake.
It is different for the Joker, because he was put into this world with a flaw:
he sees too deeply and too much.


Truth is a lonely thing.”
Jostein Gaarder, The Solitaire Mystery

“Das Drama aller Zeiten hat eigentlich nur ein einziges Thema gehabt: die Unfähigkeit der Menschen, miteinander zu leben.”
Gerhard Bronner

“You are describing the world and by describing it you are creating it”
Stevens

William Shakespeare
“Love is a smoke made with the fume of sighs;
Being purg'd, a fire sparkling in lovers' eyes;
Being vex'd, a sea nourish'd with lovers' tears;
What is it else? A madness most discreet,
A choking gall, and a preserving sweet.”
William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet
