Quotes by Mitchell Lüthi (?)

“enslave a man was to control his body, but to deceive a man, to convince him to act upon a falsehood, was to enslave his spirit and mind.”
― Mitchell Lüthi, Pilgrim: A Medieval Horror

“Orpheus had found his wife waiting for him and bargained with Hades and Persephone for her release. But Dietmar had no sweet songs to soften the Devil's heart, only his love. Perhaps he would be forced to remain so that they might go free? He would take that bargain and be glad for it.”

“What Razin had described was not unfamiliar to him. Old Tirus, Leviathan, Falak, the Norse Jormungandr—these were the serpents that would end the world. He’d sometimes wondered how so many tales could share so many characteristics if there were not some truth to them.”

Mitchell’s Quotes

“Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.”
― H.L. Mencken, Prejudices First Series

tags: diplomacy, love, outrage

784 likes

“One of the first signs of the beginning of understanding is the wish to die. This life appears unbearable, another unattainable. One is no longer ashamed of wanting to die; one asks to be moved from the old cell, which one hates, to a new one, which one willl only in time come to hate. In this there is also a residue of belief that during the move the master will chance to come along the corridor, look at the prisoner and say: "This man is not to be locked up again, He is to come with me.”
― Franz Kafka, The Blue Octavo Notebooks
