Learn what is to be taken seriously and laugh at the rest. - Hermann Hesse
"Learn what is to be taken seriously and laugh at the rest."
"Learn what is to be taken seriously and laugh at the rest."
"Without words, without writing and without books there would be no history, there could be no concept of humanity."
"I will no longer mutilate and destroy myself in order to find a secret behind the ruins."
"Uit deze belevenissen, die niemand ziet, bestaat de innerlijke, wezenlijke lijn van ons lot. Zulk een breuk en scheur groeit weer dicht, hij heelt en wordt vergeten, maar in de diepst verborgen hoek leeft en bloedt hij verder."
"A thousand times I was ready to regret and take back my rash statement - yet it had been the truth."
"Our mind is capable of passing beyond the dividing line we have drawn for it. Beyond the pairs of opposites of which the world consists, other, new insights begin."
