“Speaking of Kafka, have I told you he’s one of the authors I read for self-improvement? Today I underlined this phrase, which I could repeat every morning: ‘He who seeks does not find, but he who does not seek will be found.’ In fact, the genre people call self-help literature sounds tautological to me; I read all literature as self-help.”
― Brenda Lozano, Loop
