c45eaad Les natures du genre de la tienne, les hommes doues de sens delicats, ceux qui ont de l'ame, les poetes, ceux pour qui toute la vie est amour nous sont presque toujours superieurs, a nous, chez qui domine l'intellect. Vous etes, par votre origine, du cote de la mere. Vous vivez dans la plenitude de l'etre. La force de l'amour, la capacite de vivre intensement les choses est votre lot. Nous autres, hommes d'intellect, bien que nous ayons l'a.. Hermann Hesse
2a32eea L'intelligence aime ce qui est fixe, ce qui a forme; elle veut pouvoir se fier a ses signes, elle aime ce qui est, non ce qui est en devenir; le reel, non le possible. Elle ne tolere pas qu'un omega devienne un serpent ou un oiseau. L'intelligence ne peut pas vivre dans la nature, mais seulement en face d'elle, comme son contraire. (p. 74) Hermann Hesse
5824d8b Insanlarin buyuk cogunlugu yuzmeyi ogrenmeden yuzmek istemez." Ne anlamli bir soz, degil mi? Yuzmek istememeleri dogal, cunku karada yasamak icin yaratilmislar, suda degil. Ve dusunmek istememeleri de dogal, cunku yasamak icin yaratilmislar, dusunmek icin degil! Evet, kim dusunurse, kim dusunmeyi kendisi icin temel ugras yaparsa, bunda ileri bir noktaya ulasabilir; ne var ki, karayla suyu degis tokus etmistir boyle biri ve gun gelir suda bo.. Hermann Hesse

3105776 Tanriyla barisa mi diyorsun? Hayir, Tanriyla barismis degilim. Onunla baris yapmayi da istemiyorum. Tanri dunyayi kotu yaratti, bu dunyayi ovmemiz icin neden yok, kendisini de ovmusum ya da yermisim, umrunda degil pek. Dunyayi kotu yaratti Tanri. Ama gogsumdeki agrilarla baristim, bu dogru. Eskiden acilara o kadar katlanamazdim, bazen olmenin benim icin kolay olacagini dusunmussem de, bir yanilgidan baska sey degildi bu. Hermann Hesse
114ea7b Der Burger nun schatzt nichts hoher als das Ich (ein nur rudimentar entwickeltes Ich allerdings). Auf Kosten der Intensitat also erreicht er Erhaltung und Sicherheit, statt Gottbesessenheit erntet er Gewissensruhe, statt Lust Behagen, statt Freiheit Bequemlichkeit, statt todlicher Glut eine angenehme Temperatur. Der Burger ist deshalb seinem Wesen nach ein Geschopf von schwachem Lebensantrieb, angstlich, jede Preisgabe seiner selbst furchte.. Hermann Hesse
62076c4 Ecoute : l'intellectuel essaie de connaitre et de representer au moyen de la logique l'essence du monde. Il sait que notre intelligence et son instrument, la logique, sont des outils imparfaits - tout comme un artiste sense n'ignore pas que son pinceau ou son ciseau ne pourront jamais exprimer parfaitement la splendeur d'un ange ou d'un saint. Pourtant tous deux essaient, le penseur comme l'artiste, chacun a sa maniere. Ils ne peuvent pas f.. Hermann Hesse
5de93d3 La sabiduria no es comunicativa. La sabiduria que un sabio intenta comunicar suena siempre a necedad. Se pueden transmitir los conocimientos pero la sabiduria no. Hermann Hesse
ca48fee No one had any objection when I suggested another detour shortly before reaching town. We turned on to a lovely road that ran high above the valley in a semi-circle , rich in extensive views over the valley, river and town, which, in the distance, was already aglow with rows of bright lamps and thousands of rosy lights. Hermann Hesse

1c3419f Kai zmogus iesko, tada lengvai atsitinka, kad jo akys mato tik ta dalyka, kurio iesko, ir jis nieko kito neistengia pastebeti ar suvokti, nes visa laika galvoja tik apie ieskoma daikta - jis turi tiksla, apsestas savo tikslo. Ieskoti- tai tureti tiksla. Bet rasti - vadinasi, buti laisvam, atviram pojuciams, netureti jokio tikslo. Hermann Hesse
5109053 Taip daug, tukstanciai zmoniu igijo brangiausia turta- laime, bet kodel ne as? Net piktieji, netgi vagys ar plesikai yra mylimi, tik ne as. Hermann Hesse

48ae0a8 Jis buvo neblogas vyras, gerasirdis, malonus, svelnus, ko gero, labai romus vyras, galbut sventasis - deja, ne siomis savybemis galejai palenkti berniuka. Neidomus jam atrode tevas, laikas je varganoje trobeleje, nuobodus jis buvo, o tai, kad jis i bet kokia isdaiga atsakydavo sypsena, i kiekviena izeidima - draugiskumu, i pykti - gerumu, kaip tik ir buvo nepakenciamiausia sio seno landuno klasta. Daug mieliau butu berniukui, kad sis jam gr.. Hermann Hesse
f8243c6 Nos sentimos tentados a creerlos caprichos nuestros, creaciones propias, vemos vacilar y disolverse la frontera entre nosotros y la naturaleza, y adquirimos conciencia de un estado de animo en el que no sabemos si las imagenes en nuestra retina provienen de impresiones exteriores o interiores. En ningun otro momento descubrimos con tanta facilidad la medida en que somos creadores, en que nuestra alma participa constantemente en la recreacio.. vida Hermann Hesse
9aea8c2 Deeply, he felt the love for the run-away in his heart, like a wound, and he felt at the same time that this wound had not been given to him in order to turn the knife in it, that it had to become a blossom and had to shine. Hermann Hesse
2b78c60 In Josef Knechts handschriftlicher Ubersetzung: .... denn mogen auch in gewisser Hinsicht und fur leichtfertige Menschen die nicht existierenden Dinge leichter und verantwortungsloser durch Worte darzustellen sein als die seienden, so ist es doch fur den frommen und gewissenhaften Geschichtsschreiber gerade umgekehrt: nichts entzieht sich der Darstellung durch Worte so sehr und nichts ist doch notwendiger, den Menschen vor Augen zu stellen,..

050ef07 She taught him, that lovers must not part from one another after celebrating love, without one admiring the other, without being just as defeated as they have been victorious, so that with none of them should start feeling fed up or bored and get that evil feeling of having abused or having been abused. Hermann Hesse
42e15a6 And everything together, all voices, all goals, all yearning, all suffering, all pleasure, all that was good and evil, all of this together was the world. All of it together was the flow of events, was the music of life. Hermann Hesse
7372918 In any case, the life of a drunk is presumably livelier than that of the ordinary well-behaved citizen. And then--I read that once somewhere--the life of a hedonist is the best preparation for becoming a mystic. People like St. Augustine are always the ones that become visionaries. Hermann Hesse

5c9ab2a How should he not know love, he, who has discovered all elements of human existence in their transitoriness, in their meaninglessness, and yet loved people thus much, to use a long, laborious life only to help them, to teach them! Even with him, even with your great teacher, I prefer the thing over the words, place more importance on his acts and life than on his speeches, more on the gestures of his hand than his opinions. Not in his speec.. Hermann Hesse

d807d7e This one was so lively and talkative, she paid no attention to him or his shyness, so he withdrew his feelers awkwardly and a little offended crawled back into himself like a snail brushed by a cartwheel. Hermann Hesse
f2a7f8b But now, his liberated eyes stayed on this side, he saw and became aware of the visible, sought to be at home in this world, did not search for the true essence, did not aim at a world beyond. Beautiful was this world, looking at it thus, without searching, thus simply, thus childlike. Beautiful were the moon and the stars, beautiful was the stream and the banks, the forest and the rocks, the goat and the golden beetle, the flower and the b.. Hermann Hesse
5e4ba0b there exists a deep gulf between genius and the teaching profession. Anyone with a touch of genius seems to his teachers a freak from the very first. As far as teachers are concerned, they define young geniuses as those who are bad, disrespectful, smoke at fourteen, fall in love at fifteen, can be found at sixteen hanging out in bars, read forbidden books, write scandalous essays, occasionally stare down a teacher in class, are marked in th..

8309fcd It is good, he thought, to taste for oneself all that it is necessary to know. Already as a child I learned that worldly desires and wealth were not good things. I have known this for a long time but have only now experienced it. And now I do know it, know it not only with my memory but with my eyes, with my heart, and with my stomach. How glad I am to know it! Hermann Hesse
48a32a9 Words are not good for the secret meaning; everything always becomes a little bit different the moment one speaks it aloud, a bit falsified, a bit foolish--yes, and this too is also very good and pleases me greatly: that one person's treasure and wisdom always sounds like foolishness to others. Hermann Hesse
064e345 the headmaster [...] pledged that, provided he behaved himself, he would be duly sheltered and cared for by the state for the rest of his days. It did not occur to any of the boys, nor their fathers, that all this would perhaps not really be free. Hermann Hesse
f161c31 he carried with him, obscured by only the lightest of veils, the awareness that a door was open and that one quick step could carry him to freedom whenever he chose. Hermann Hesse

a1a6cb0 the old buzzard told me his life's story. I only remember that it was interesting and unusual; I've forgotten all the details. Hermann Hesse
3f3c41e We immortals do not like things to be taken seriously. We like joking. Seriousness, young man, is an accident of time. It consists, I don't mind telling you in confidence, in putting too high a value on time. I, too, once put too high a value on time. For that reason I wished to be a hundred years old. In eternity, however, there is no time, you see. Eternity is a mere moment, just long enough for a joke. Hermann Hesse
09eb8f1 Too much thinking was still not good for me. Hermann Hesse
357db2f Everyone who has changed the course of human history, every last one was able to do so only because he was ready for his destiny. That's true of Moses and the Buddha, Napoleon and Bismarck. The wave that carries us, the star that guides us--we cannot choose it. Hermann Hesse
