Franz Kafka
“You are so vulnerably haunting; Your eeriness is terrifyingly irresistible.”
Franz Kafka, Letters to Milena

Don DeLillo
“I needed death in order to believe I was living, an atmosphere of death much more real and personal than anything the newspapers can offer.”
Don DeLillo, Americana

Franz Kafka
“But what shall I do when instead of a heart this fear is beating in my body?”
Franz Kafka, Letters to Milena
tags: fear

Franz Kafka
“It occurs to me that I really can't remember your face in any precise detail. Only the way you walked away through the tables in the café, your figure, your dress, that I still see.”
Franz Kafka, Letters to Milena

Don DeLillo
“In time I let my head ease back on the top step and I closed my eyes. I was moving into the biblical phase of the afternoon, the peak of my new simplicity. A verity less than eternal had little appeal. I prepared myself to think of night, desert, sorrowful forests, of the moon, the stars, the west wind, baptismal mist and the rich myrrh of harvested earth. Instead I thought of tits.”
Don DeLillo, End Zone
