Perhaps the best resource is to meet everything passively, to make yourself an inert mass, and, if you feel that you are being taken away by anything, not to let yourself be lured into taking a single unnecessary step, to stare at others with the eyes of an animal, to feel no compunction; in short, with your own hand to throttle down whatever ghostly life remains within you, that is, to enlarge the final peace of the graveyard and let nothing survive save that. -Franz Kafka

“People who look for symbolic meanings fail to grasp the inherent poetry and mystery of the image. No doubt they sense this mystery, but they wish to get rid of it. They are afraid. By asking what does this mean?; they express a wish that everything be understandable. But if one does not reject the mystery, one has quite a different response. One asks other things. Everything we see hides another thing, we always want to see what is hidden by what we see.”
