Quote by Stefan Zweig

“La máquina de 1792, la guillotina, inventada para suprimir toda resistncia contra el Estado, es una herramienta torpe comparada con la maquinaria policíaca, combinada y refinada por la superioridad espiritual del José Fouché de 1799.”

“One can't have literary comprehension without real experience, mere grammatical knowledge of the words is useless without recognition of their values, and when you young people want to understand a country and its language you should start by seeing it at its most beautiful, in the strength of its youth, at its most passionate. You should begin by hearing the language in the mouths of the poets who create and perfect it, you must have felt poetry warm and alive in your hearts before we smart anatomizing it.”

“Ganz blind arbeitete er vorwärts, ohne jeden Ehrgeiz, nur um sich zu betäuben und nicht an die vielen Dinge zu denken, auf die er verzichten mußte. Er begriff, daß ein wunderbares Geheimnis in diesem Fieber war, mit dem sich viele Leute über die Nutzlosigkeit und Leere ihres ganzen Lebens hinwegtäuschten, und hoffte, so auch seinem Leben einen Sinn aufzwingen zu können, freilich vergessend, daß die erste Jugend nicht einen Sinn des Lebens will, sondern das ganze vielfältige Leben selbst.”

“Edebiyatta sınırları aşan önemli kişiler arasında, günümüzün en büyüğü Dostoyevski'dir, ruh alanında kimse ondan daha fazla yeni ülke keşfetmemiştir; bu müthiş, bu ölçüye sığmaz adamın kendi ifadesiyle "ölçülemezlik ve sonsuzluk, yeryüzünün kendisi kadar elzemdi". Dostoyevski hiçbir yerde duraklamamıştır, "Her yerde sınırı aştım," diye yazar bir mektubunda gururla ve kendinden yakınarak, "her yerde".”
