Rocky being adorable, The Beatles references....yes, I love this book

"(...) in spite of his present unhappy and hateful appearance, Gregor was a member of the family, something one should not treat as an enemy, and that it was, on the contrary, a requirement of family duty to suppress one's aversion and to endure — nothing else, just endure".

"(...) he understood more than most the friend's loneliness - the loneliness under the light-hearted mask".

"The only things before him were madness or suicide. Walking alone on the twilight street, he decided to wait for the fate that would slowly come to destroy him".

"I hear you want to die".
"Yes. — No, rather than wanting to die, I'm tired of living".

"The suicide of his sister's husband suddenly struck him down. Noe he had to take care of his sister's family too. His future, at least to him, was as dim as dusk".

El peso de ser el responsable de mantener a tu familia... cuando apenas puedes soportarte a ti mismo.

"But he himself knew the source of his illness. It was a feeling of both same towards himself and fear of them. Them — the society he despised".

Leer a cualquier escritor que está pasando por una crisis depresiva severa es complejo. Aunque muchas cosas pueden parecer sin sentido, la esencia del sufrimiento sangra en la historia. Veo cómo estas viñetas pueden parecer aburridas, pero es tétrico entender a lo que Akutagawa se refería en algunos casos...

Aunque es la misma esencia, es muy diferente a la película. Pero amo los dos.

"Why was this one born into this world full of suffering? Why was this one destined to have someone like me as a father?"

Life was no longer bright at all for him at twenty-nine. But Voltaire provided him with artificial wings.

I'm not exaggerating when I say I would die for Rocky 😭😭😭

Me encanta.

Tengo mucho leyendo este libro no por falta de interés, pero sí por falta de tiempo. Tomé la mejor decisión de mi vida al acompañarlo con el audiolibro, y ahora amo a Rocky más (si eso era posible) jajajaja mi cosita tan bella, todo lo que está bien en este mundo ♥♥

In that suburban second floor, he often pondered why those who love each other must hurt each other.

Life is not worth even a line of Baudelaire.

However, he did not linger on that point. For he knew from the first day of his new life that as far as he was concerned his father considered the greatest foree in only appropriate response.

Pleasently surprised, will review later

Me parece bien loco que hace 200 años la gente se sentaba emocionada a ver cómo decapitaban a alguien. Hasta comían, como si fuera un espectáculo de circo. Qué miedo da la gente.

"I shall remember that evening all my life! Oh, heaven! All my life!".

Uff, me gustan los argumentos. Es una apología en contra de la pena de muerte, pero realmente me ha puesto a pensar.

"(...) that he will make the guilty man dance where there is no floor".

"(...); for it is this whih they do not consider. They triumph in the power of being able to destroy the body, almost without making it suffer. Whan an inferior consideration is this! What is the mere physical pain compared to that of the mind? A day will come, and perhaps these memoirs, the last revelations of a solitary wretch, will have contributed —".
