user (fibber) | 3 comments Hi,

I was wondering if someone could direct me to the actual page or date of Kafka's diaries in which he makes he the following entry:

https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/9865...

I can't seem to find it myself and would appreciate any help.

Emily | 17471 comments I found through Archive.org a copy of a book by Mary Jo Bang that has this line in a poem. I changed the author and book on the quote. I couldn't find it in an English translation of his diaries.

Note that anyone can add quotes to Goodreads. Since there are many quotes attributed to people even though the authors are unknown or someone else, they will be on Goodreads if people add them. Einstein, Lincoln, Churchill, etc are popular. If you find a quote that we can attribute to someone else just let us know.
