Satangan

“I must be alone a great deal. What I have achieved is only a result of being alone.”
― Franz Kafka, The Diaries of Franz Kafka

“One stands painfully pinned against the wall, fearfully lowers one’s eyes to see the hand that pins and with a new pain that makes one forget the old, recognizes one’s own crooked hand, which holds you with a strength it never had for good work. One raises one’s head, again feels the first pain, again lowers one’s eyes and this up and down never ceases.”
― Franz Kafka, The Diaries of Franz Kafka

“being alone brings only punishments.”
― Franz Kafka, The Diaries of Franz Kafka

“When I say something it immediately and definitively loses its importance, when I write it down it always loses it too, but sometimes gains a new one.”
― Franz Kafka, The Diaries of Franz Kafka
