Kafka Quote

"He feels imprisoned on this earth, he feels constricted: the melancholy, the impotence, the sickness, the feverish fancies of the captive afflict him; no comfort can comfort him, since it is merely comfort, gentle head-splitting comfort glozing the brutal fact of imprisonment. But if he is asked what he actually wants he cannot reply, for--that is one of his strongest proofs--he has no conception of freedom." - Franz Kafka, in "He"
