 The art of storytelling is reaching its end because the epic side of truth, wisdom, is dying out.

 The art of the critic in a nutshell: to coin slogans without betraying ideas. The slogans of an inadequate criticism peddle ideas to fashion.

 The camera introduces us to unconscious optics as does psychoanalysis to unconscious impulses.

 The construction of life is at present in the power of facts far more than convictions.

 The destructive character lives from the feeling, not that life is worth living, but that suicide is not worth the trouble.

 The greater the decrease in the social significance of an art form, the sharper the distinction between criticism and enjoyment by the public. The conventional is uncritically enjoyed, and the truly new is criticized with aversion.

 The idea that happiness could have a share in beauty would be too much of a good thing.

 The only way of knowing a person is to love them without hope.

 The power of a text is different when it is read from when it is copied out. Only the copied text thus commands the soul of him who is occupied with it, whereas the mere reader never discovers the new aspects of his inner self that are opened by the text, that road cut through the interior jungle forever closing behind it: because the reader follows the movement of his mind in the free flight of day-dreaming, whereas the copier submits it to command.

 The true picture of the past flits by. The past can be seized only as an image which flashes up at the instant when it can be recognized and is never seen again.

 These are days when no one should rely unduly on his competence. Strength lies in improvisation. All the decisive blows are struck left-handed.

 To be happy is to be able to become aware of oneself without fright.

 To do justice to the figure of Kafka in its purity and its peculiar beauty one must never lose sight of one thing: it is the purity and beauty of a failure.

 We have long forgotten the ritual by which the house of our life was erected. But when it is under assault and enemy bombs are already taking their toll, what enervated, perverse antiquities do they not lay bare in the foundations.

 Work on good prose has three steps: a musical stage when it is composed, an architectonic one when it is built, and a textile one when it is woven.
