Author of quotes: Hermann Hesse. Page 4



Human life seems to me a dark, sad night that it would be impossible to endure, if here and there not a flash of lightning, whose unexpected light so comforting and wonderful, that these seconds can wipe out and justify the years of darkness.
Dark, inconsolable darkness - a terrible cycle of daily life. Why would a person rises in the morning, eats and drinks and then lies down again? The child, savage, healthy young man, the animal does not suffer from this cycle faceless things and Affairs. Who does not suffer from the thoughts that pleased with the lift in the morning, eating and drinking, he finds in it satisfaction and the other does not want. But who has lost the sense of naturalness of all this, he eagerly and keenly looking for during the days of the true moments of life, flashes which give happiness and deadens the sense of time with all the reflections on the meaning and purpose of life in General.

The world is in deep snow
Raven on a branch flapping its wings.
I, Steppenwolf, keep running,
But I do not see anywhere neither hare nor deer!
No one - everywhere you look.
And I would force not spared in pursuit,
I would have taken it in the teeth, in the palm of your hand,
This is my love - DOE.

I always have to take a deep breath of it as I go? As the smell of wax, which is smeared floor, and a faint flavor of turpentine together with the mahogany, washed leaves and all the way create fragrance, create the highest expression of bourgeois cleanliness, thoroughness and accuracy of duty and faithfulness in the small. Don't know who lives here, but behind that glass door should be a Paradise of purity, of the petty bourgeoisie without a single speck of dust, a Paradise of order and timidly touching devotion to the little habits and responsibilities.

People should not want myself nor greatness, nor happiness, nor heroism, no sweet fruits, - it would not have much to imagine, nothing but pure, sensitive mind, a brave heart and loyalty and wisdom, the patience that they endure and happiness and suffering and noise and silence.

It happens with you too? Suddenly,
when rejoice the festive night,
among friends fun and friends
you shut up and go away.
Fall on the bed - not to sleep,
as though the pain is knocking you in the chest;
smiles, joy - all the haze melts away,
you cry... And with you it happens?

The candle I have extinguished,
In the open window
Flowing night and soft hugs,
And a brother, a friend fondly calls.
And with it we have the same anguish full,
And we dream the same dreams.
We whisper quietly about the past,
And remember with sadness his father's house.
Quote Explanation: Translation Of Elena Bonner Münster.
