Another Library Visit

I've been on edge ever since my last blog entry, even if I haven't had any more hallucinations with the tall man. But, ever since I posted the notebook scribblings of my hallucinations, I've only had hallucinations of him. My head feels like a big mess.

Anyway. I went to the library today in order to do something that would put my mind off things such as the faceless man and Brian's disappearing (contrary to popular belief, I'm not as cold-hearted as I seem like sometimes). At first I was afraid that going to that place would only lead to me getting even more hallucinations since this was the first place in which I saw the faceless man in, but soon I became lost in the world of books.

So I decided to post some favourite quotes of mine, from none other than Franz Kafka~



"Association with human beings lures one into self-observation."

"Believing in progress does not mean believing that any progress has yet been made."

"By believing passionately in something that still does not exist, we create it. The nonexistent is whatever we have not sufficiently desired."

"By imposing too great a responsibility, or rather, all responsibility, on yourself, you crush yourself."

"Hiding places there are innumerable, escape is only one, but possibilities of escape, again, are as many as hiding places."

"It is not necessary that you leave the house. Remain at your table and listen. Do not even listen, only wait. Do not even wait, be wholly still and alone. The world will present itself to you for its unmasking, it can do no other, in ecstasy it will writhe at your feet."

"It is often safer to be in chains than to be free."

"One advantage in keeping a diary is that you become aware with reassuring clarity of the changes which you constantly suffer."

"Start with what is right rather than what is acceptable."

"My "fear" is my substance, and probably the best part of me."

  1. Ah, I am starting to believe that visiting a library or bookstore might help me as well. At least, it will get my mind off of Brian, and far from the Day Care.
    ..Not to mention help me with your hallucinating, maybe I can find some sort of book on the subject..

  2. Yes, maybe you should. It's quite relaxing.
    That'd be great, although don't wear yourself out too much just for me, okay?

  3. I'll surely try my best not to, although I am finding it to be very relaxing.
