Der Mord

“Ah, coherence, that old canard. All the books are full of it, in all the classrooms the teachers are chalking it up on the blackboard; the mother dreams of it while her baby is at her breast - and there you are, sitting here, asking me about coherence. You must have had an unusually misspent youth.””

— Franz Kafka

“Please, Father, let he future rest, as it deserves. If you wake it ahead of time, the only result is a sleepy-headed present. You shouldn’t need your son to remind you of that.””

— Franz Kafka

“If you were to articulate it, who would be able to resist you? The great chorus of caninity would chime in with you, as if it had just been waiting for this moment.””

— Franz Kafka
