Quote by Ingeborg Bachmann

“Kendi yasama ihanet etmeden bu tasaları nasıl haklı görebilirdim? Girdiğiniz çıkmazların önemine nasıl inanabilirdim? Size gerçekten inandıkça, o güçsüz ve kendini beğenmiş sözlerinizden, o miskin davranışlarınızdan, o budalaca kuşkularınızdan daha fazla bir şey olduğunuza tamamen inandıkça, size nasıl inanabilirdim?”

Spring was in tune with their hearts and their hearts with spring. What wonder then if her storks and swallows awoke in them also a wish to travel ? One day, as they were sauntering to one of the sources of the Danube, Huldbrand spoke of the majesty of the noble river, and how it flowed on, ever widening, through fertile lands ; how the glory of Vienna rose on its banks, and new might and loveliness were revealed in every tract and reach of its course. " It must be glorious to sail down the river to Vienna," exclaimed Bertalda ; then falling back on her present mood of humbleness and reserve, she coloured deeply and was silent.”
