#Franz Kafka letters to his father

[diabolicalrat]

“And I was stifled in your presence; and I thought you are an excellent talker, as far as your own things are concerned, I got a faltering, stuttering style of speech; and even that was too much for you, and I became silent; first perhaps out of defiance, but then because I could neither think near you, nor speak.”

-Franz Kafka, “Letter to my Father”

it is, after all, not necessary to fly right into the middle of the sun, but it is necessary to crawl to a clean little spot on earth where the sun sometimes shines and one can warm oneself a little.

A man doesn’t need to fly to the sun, he need only find a patch of clean earth, and crawl there, and let the sun shine on him.

Letter to His Father, Franz Kafka

[girl-please-study]

It is as if a person were a prisoner, and he had not only the intention to escape, which would perhaps be attainable, but also, and indeed simultaneously, the intention to rebuild the prison as a pleasure dome for himself. But if he escapes, he cannot rebuild, and if he rebuilds, he cannot escape.

girls when they remember that kafka started writing the letter to his father in an attempt to confront him for his actions but the actual letter ended up being more of a harsh critique towards kafkas own character and then he ended up hating the document because he felt he had twisted the truth with too much interpretation
