"He who does not answer the questions..." - Quote by Franz Kafka

“For we are like tree trunks in the snow. In appearance they lie smoothly and a little push should be enough to set them rolling. No, it can't be done, for they are firmly wedded to the ground. But see, even that is only appearance.”

“sleep is the most innocent creature there is and a sleepless man the most guilty.”

“I do not see the world at all; I invent it.”

“Every drunken skipper trusts to Providence. But one of the ways of Providence with drunken skippers is to run them on the rocks.”

“Out of intense complexities intense simplicities emerge. Broadly speaking, the short words are the best, and the old words when short are best of all.”

“You live with life's disappointments and learn from them. At seventy-eight, I know it all.”

“The right question is usually more important than the right answer.”

“If a word is misspelled in the dictionary, how would we ever know? If Webster wrote the first dictionary, where did he find the words? Why is 'phonics' not spelled the way it sounds? How come abbreviated is such a long word?”

“If you are in a spaceship that is traveling at the speed of light, and you turn on the headlights, does anything happen?”
