More from Hermann Hesse
Oh, love isn’t there to make us happy. I believe it exists to show us how much we can endure.
Peter Camenzind (1904)- Demian (1919), p. 94
- Narcissus and Goldmund (1930)
When artists create pictures and thinkers search for laws and formulate thoughts, it is in order to salvage something from the great dance of death, to make something that lasts longer than we do.
