Franz Kafka (July 3, 1883 – June 3, 1924) was a Jewish, a 20th-century Austrian German-language novelist, and a famous European expressionist writer. He was the grandmaster and explorer of Western modernist literature, and his sense of strangeness, loneliness and fear of society was the eternal theme of his work, and this unique approach made him a pioneer of various genres of writing in the twentieth century. His main works include "Trial", "Metamorphosis", "Castle" and so on.
How sad life is, how sharp the soul is.
How sad Kafka is, every sentence is the voice of a modern social animal......
1. I can't move forward towards the future, but I can face the future and move forward. What I do best is slump.
2. I endured five years of office life, starting work at eight in the morning and arriving at seven, half-past seven, eight, and half-past eight in the evening... Oh, my God! I stood in the narrow hallway leading to my office, invaded by despair every morning.
3. To live is to move forward along a continuous fork in the road. Where does it lead? Not even being allowed to look back.
4. Just taking a walk made me so tired that I could hardly do anything for three days.
5. Before I knew it, the horn of the sleepless night sounded again.
6. I forgot when, my foot was broken, and it was the most wonderful experience of my life.
7. I don't have any necessary ability to face life, only the weakness of human nature.
8. I tried to sort out the relationship I had been with my friends, and found that it was a vain run.
9. I've walked far, far, and walked alone for about five hours, but I don't feel lonely enough. Although it is an uninhabited valley, it is not lonely enough.
10. What I need is a little encouragement and gentleness, just a little bit to help me open up my own path. Clearly, you have blocked the road.
11. Although I never consider myself a lazy person, I have never thought of doing anything so far. The things that make me feel worthwhile in life are to be blamed, slandered, and attacked. For me, no matter where I wanted to escape, I couldn't do it even if I tried my best.
12. When Balzac walked, the grip of his commonly used cane was engraved with the words: "I defeat all difficulties". On the top of my cane is the inscription: "All difficulties defeat me." The only thing we have in common is the word "everything".
13. I even raised the cup with milk to my mouth, and I felt terrible. Because the cup could shatter and scatter in front of me, shards across my face.
14. There is a goal, but there is no way to reach it. Although I wanted to follow the path, I always hesitated.
15. The nervous rain always falls on my head. I want to do something now, but after a while, I don't want to do it.
16. Maybe you are curious, why I didn't quit this job, why didn't I rely on crawling books and words to get ahead? Faced with this question, I had no choice but to respond. Because I don't have the ability, I'm afraid I'll be even more unbearable because of this job. Besides, it will become unbearable suddenly.
17. I spend time-wasting nights with all kinds of people, and I try to listen to them, but no matter how hard I try, I'm not at the scene or anywhere else, so I can't imagine that I am not alive for these two hours. Yes, definitely. Why? Because if I sat in that chair, my presence should be more definite.
18. In my life, just to brush off the idea of seeking death, it took a lot of effort.
Kafka is known as the earliest prophet of spiritual dilemmas in the 20th century, and Kafka's significance to today has not diminished in the slightest. His talent and oversensitivity allow him to create a dream to perfection. This dream reminds us of the real world in which we live.
Haruki Murakami said: "Kafka is one of the writers I loved all my life. When I was 15 years old, I was first introduced to Kafka's The Castle, a great masterpiece in which Kafka's world was both real and absurd, separating my heart and soul into two parts at the same time. ”
For today's people, isn't the real world full of absurdity? The world is changing, but human nature has never changed, and people in different eras have different but similar absurd stories.
Therefore, Kafka is timeless. Kafka saw a universal human dilemma in the cage of the individual, and his black room became a black room for all at the same time. His observations are about himself, and even more so about everyone.
