“The aim of literature ... is the creation of a strange object covered with fur which breaks your heart.”
― Come Back, Dr. Caligari
― Come Back, Dr. Caligari
“He is mad about being small when you were big, but no, that's not it, he is mad about being helpless when you were powerful, but no, not that either, he is mad about being contingent when you were necessary, not quite it... he is insane because when he loved you, you didn't notice.”
