721b44f When I consider my life objectively, it does not seem particularly happy. Yet I cannot really call it unhappy, despite all my mistakes. After all, it is quite foolish to talk about happiness and unhappiness, for it seems to me that I would not exchange the unhappiest days of my life for all the happy ones. happiness happiness-quotes hermann-hesse mistakes unhappiness Hermann Hesse

49f8a93 Sprach Siddhartha: "Was sollte ich dir, Ehrwurdiger, wohl zu sagen haben? Vielleicht das, dass du allzu viel suchst? Dass du vor Suchen nicht zum Finden kommst?" Hermann Hesse
d576c91 All children, as long as they still live in the mystery, are continuously occupied in their souls with the only thing that is important, which is themselves and their enigmatic relationship to the world around them. Seekers and wise people return to these preoccupations as they mature. Most people, however, forget and leave forever this inner world of the truly significant very early in their lives. Like lost souls they wander about for the.. Hermann Hesse
0cbf122 I had often observed the sparkle in the eye of those who told me of it and I had always treated it with a half-superior, half-envious smile. Hermann Hesse

71200e8 Todos los hombres pasan por estas dificultades. Para el hombre medio es este el punto en que las exigencias de su propia vida entran en colision dramatica con las circunstancias, el punto en que tiene que luchar mas duramente por alcanzar el camino que conduce hacia adelante. Muchos viven tal morir y renacer, que es nuestro destino, solo en ese momento de su vida en que el mundo infantil se resquebraja y se derrumba lentamente, cuando todo .. madurez vida Hermann Hesse
89c6fd2 You were willing. See here, Kamala: When you throw a stone into water, it falls quickly by the fastest route to the bottom of the pond. This is the way it is when Siddhartha has an aim, an intention. Siddhartha does nothing--he waits, he thinks, he fasts--but he passes through the things of the world like the stone through the water, without bestirring himself. He is drawn forward and he lets himself fall. His goal draws him to it, for he l.. Hermann Hesse

0eea61c I am curious to see all the same just how much a man can endure. If the limit of what is bearable is reached, I have only to open the door to escape. Hermann Hesse
bde8438 The realization of what wisdom actually was slowly blossomed and ripened in Siddhartha--and he discovered what the goal of his long search was. It was nothing but a readiness of the soul, an ability, a secret art, to think every moment, while living his life, the thought of oneness, to be able to feel and inhale the oneness. Slowly this blossomed in him, was reflected back at him from Vasudeva's old, childlike face: harmony, knowledge of th.. Hermann Hesse
71efe07 In short, his aim is to make a home for himself between two extremes in a temperate zone without violent storms and tempests; and in this he succeeds though it be at the cost of that intensity of life and feeling which an extreme life affords. A man cannot live intensely except at the cost of the self. Hermann Hesse

40b1e38 En depit de toutes les profondes differences de leurs natures, tous deux avaient beaucoup appris l'un de l'autre; entre eux, a cote de la langue de la raison, il s'etait peu a peu forme un parler de l'ame, un langage de signes, de meme que, entre deux agglomerations, il y a bien une route sur laquelle circulent les voitures et les cavaliers, mais a cote se tracent beaucoup de petites sentes, de chemins de traverse, de sentiers detournes; ch..

795833f Both, the thoughts as well as the senses, were pretty things, the ultimate meaning was hidden behind both of them, Hermann Hesse
3124986 It was wonderful to be living in a house in a reign of peace, order, tranquility, duty and good conscience, forgiveness and love--but it was no less wonderful to know there was the other, the loud and shrill, sullen and violent world from which you could dart back to your mother in one leap. tranquility Hermann Hesse

b242c9b he knew more than you and I, without teachers, without books, just because he believed in the river. Hermann Hesse
2bfedee In this atmosphere of wintry desolation and isolation, this slowly, very slowly increasing chill, my hands and lips started to freeze. Had I extinguished the sun? Had I killed the heart of all life? Hermann Hesse
504305e I had walked but a short time when I met a man with a tin number on his hat, and he asked me what I was doing. I told him I was taking a walk. His response: 'Do you have permission?' I did not understand him. Hermann Hesse
45acb60 que la vida no era un poema heroico con papeles protagonicos y cuestiones por el estilo, sino una comoda sala burguesa donde la gente estaba satisfecha con comer y beber, con tomar cafe y zurcirse las medias, con echar el tarot y escuchar la musica de la radio. Hermann Hesse
602e15a This are things, and things can be loved. But I cannot love words. Hermann Hesse
e489bfd He looked the blond lion straight in the eye and learned how large and wonderful the wild world was where there are no cages or human beings. Hermann Hesse

74159a6 I saw that something remained of the fools' play, the death dance of human life, something lasting: works of art. They too will probably perish some day; they'll burn or crumble or be destroyed. Still, they outlast many human lives; they form a silent empire of images and relics beyond the fleeting moment. To work at that seems good and comforting to me, because it almost succeeds in making the transitory eternal. immortality Hermann Hesse
d053207 We are created and resurrected with our dreams. Hermann Hesse
b4cca98 Mudrost, koju mudrac pokusava da saopsti, zvuci uvek kao ludost. ... Saznanje se moze saopstiti ali ne i mudrost. Ona se moze naci, u njoj se moze ziveti i biti ponesen njome, sa njom se mogu stvarati cuda, ali se ne moze iskazati i nauciti. Hermann Hesse
bedced4 The fact that the student enjoyed his happiness only in a dream should not diminish it, for most people experience their dreams more intensely than their lives. Hermann Hesse
45b3ba4 Humanity came first for him, not a political party or movement, and he believed peace could be achieved only if people were given freedom to realise their humanitarian impulses. Hermann Hesse
ad39c62 O]ver his soul in fleeting waves of happiness, the dreamlike presentiment of a bright earth ruled by the sun began to flicker, an earth on which bright liberated creatures lived in lightness and were subservient to no one. Hermann Hesse
7bffcd7 I became unhappy because I saw nothing but the usual tribulations, trade, progress, and improvements on the earth. Hermann Hesse
4012d64 In the meantime the Great Revolution occurred and moved throughout the entire world - that strange transformation of human beings and things. It arose like a ghost or malady from the smoke of the first steam machines and transformed life all over the place. The world became full of work and industry. It came to be ruled by machines and was continually propelled to accomplish new kinds of work. Hermann Hesse

4b38696 All they thought about was how to get rich fast, and whoever had owned a mill or forge now had to have a factory quickly, and whoever had three workers now had to have ten. ... And the faster the many hands and machines worked, the faster the money accumulated - especially for those individuals who were adept at accumulating. Many, many workers ... suffered under conditions of drudgery and slavery. Hermann Hesse
c2cadc6 The world had been divided into ... parts that sought to annihilate each other because they both desired the same thing, namely the liberation of the oppressed, the elimination of violence, and the establishment of permanent peace. Hermann Hesse
