The esthete stands in the same relation to beauty as the pornographer stands to love, and the politician stands to life.

Newspapers have roughly the same relationship to life as fortune-tellers to metaphysics

Satires which the censor can understand are justly forbidden

Psychoanalysis: a rabbit that was swallowed by a boa constrictor that just wanted to see what it was like in there

Do not learn more than you absolutely need to get through life

Lärdom

In these great times which I knew when they were this small; which will become small again, provided they have time left for it in these times in which things are happening that could not be imagined and in which what can no longer be imagined must happen, for if one could imagine it, it would not happen; in these serious times which have died laughing at the thought that they might become serious; which, surprised by their own tragedy, are reaching for diversion and, catching themselves red-handed, are groping for words... in these times you should not expect any words of my own from me -- none but these words which barely manage to prevent silence from being misinterpreted.

He who sleeps half a day has won half a life.

The immorality of men triumphs over the amorality of women.

The closer the look one takes at a word, the greater distance from which it looks back.

The press, that goiter of the world, swells up with the desire for conquest and bursts with the achievements which every day brings. A week has room for the boldest climax of the human drive for expansion.

This is something that I cannot get over / that a whole line could be written by half a man, that a work could be built on the quicksand of a character.

If the reporter has killed our imagination with his truth, he threatens our life with his lies.
