Thomas Bernhard
“E mentre lo Stato e mentre la società e mentre la massa fanno di tutto per eliminare il pensiero, dice Oehler, noi ci opponiamo a questi sviluppi con tutti i mezzi a nostra disposizione, anche se noi stessi per la maggior parte del tempo crediamo all’insensatezza del pensiero, perché sappiamo che il pensiero è piena insensatezza, ma perché – d’altra parte – sappiamo con altrettanta precisione che noi senza l’insensatezza del pensiero non siamo, ovvero non siamo nulla. [...] Di tanto in tanto, però, non possiamo fare a meno, dice Oehler, di adeguarci all’errore, di abbandonarci all’errore e cioè a tutti gli errori in generale e di non essere in assoluto in nient’altro che nell’errore. Infatti, a guardar con esattezza, dice Oehler, tutto è errore, come Lei sa. [...] L’esistenza è errore, dice Oehler.”
Thomas Bernhard

Rainer Maria Rilke
“I beg you, to have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don’t search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer.”
Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

Haruki Murakami
“She gave me this look – she might have been watching from a lifeboat as the ship went down. Or maybe it was the other way around.”
Haruki Murakami, Pinball, 1973

Friedrich Dürrenmatt
“I destini, considerati a posteriori, sono logici”
Friedrich Dürrenmatt

Bertrand Russell
“Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty— a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture, without appeal to any part of our weaker nature, without the gorgeous trappings of painting or music, yet sublimely pure, and capable of a stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show. The true spirit of delight, the exaltation, the sense of being more than Man, which is the touchstone of the highest excellence, is to be found in mathematics as surely as poetry.”
Bertrand Russell, Mysticism and Logic
