Letter "W" » Walter Benjamin Quotes
«The destructive character lives from the feeling, not that life is worth living, but that suicide is not worth the trouble.»
«Every passion borders on the chaotic, but the collector's passion borders on the chaos of memories.»
«Opinions are a private matter. The public has an interest only in judgments.»
«These are days when no one should rely unduly on his competence. Strength lies in improvisation. All the decisive blows are struck left-handed.»
«Reminiscences, even extensive ones, do not always amount to an autobiography. For autobiography has to do with time, with sequence and what makes up the continuous flow of life. Here, I am talking of a space, of moments and discontinuities. For even if months and years appear here, it is in the form they have in the moment of recollection. This strange form -- it may be called fleeting or eternal -- is in neither case the stuff that life is made of.»
«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.»
«To be happy is to be able to become aware of oneself without fright.»
«The art of storytelling is reaching its end because the epic side of truth, wisdom, is dying out.»
«Counsel woven into the fabric of real life is wisdom.»
«Boredom is the dream bird that hatches the egg of experience. A rustling in the leaves drives him away.»
