Franz Kafka
“There is a destination but no way there; what we refer to as way is hesitation.”
Franz Kafka, The Zürau Aphorisms

Simone Weil
“Imaginary evil is romantic and varied; real evil is gloomy, monotonous, barren, boring. Imaginary good is boring; real good is always new, marvelous, intoxicating.”
Simone Weil

Gilles Deleuze
“Psychoanalysis was from the start, still is, and perhaps always will be a well-constituted church and a form of treatment based on a set of beliefs that only the very faithful could adhere to, i.e., those who believe in a security that amounts to being lost in the herd and defined in terms of common and external goals”
Gilles Deleuze, Anti-Oedipus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia

Robert Bresson
“Hostility to art is also hostility to the new, to the unforeseen.”
Robert Bresson, Notes on the Cinematographer

Franz Kafka
“The crows assert that a single crow could destroy the heavens. This is certainly true, but it proves nothing against the heavens, because heaven means precisely: the impossibility of crows.”
Franz Kafka, The Zürau Aphorisms
