“The elixir of life is the awareness of life itself. One can live forever in a single thought; a single glance; a single dream. The key is to be present in every forever that comes your way.”

“The problem, often not discovered until late in life, is that when you look for things in life like love, meaning, motivation, it implies they are sitting behind a tree or under a rock. The most successful people in life recognize, that in life they create their own love, they manufacture their own meaning, they generate their own motivation.”

“Don’t bend; don’t water it down; don’t try to make it logical; don’t edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.”
Franz Kafka (via sassypantzz)
Finally picked up a Kafka book. Metamorphosis. The Motorcycle Diaries also just arrived, and I’m really into Black Boy by Wright. Got a lot of reading to do, but first I must study.
