Additional quotes by Franz Kafka

Better to have, and not need, than to need, and not have.

And I leave my post of observation and find I have had enough of this outside life; I feel that there is nothing more that I can learn here, either now or at any time. And I long to say a last goodbye to everything up here, to go down into my burrow never to return again, let things take their course, and not try to retard them with my profitless vigils.

All I am is literature, and I am not able or willing to be anything else.
