'Qualche volta il destino assomiglia a una tempesta di sabbia che muta incessantemente la direzione del percorso. Per evitarlo cambi l'andatura. E il vento cambia andatura, per seguirti meglio. Tu allora cambi di nuovo, e subito di nuovo il vento cambia per adattarsi al tuo passo. Questo si ripete infinite volte, come una danza sinistra con il dio della morte prima dell'alba. Perché quel vento non è qualcosa che è arrivato da lontano, indipendente da te. È qualcosa che hai dentro. Quel vento sei tu. Perciò l'unica cosa che puoi fare è entrarci, in quel vento, camminando dritto, e chiudendo forte gli occhi per non far entrare la sabbia.'

Born on July 3, 1883, in Prague, capital of what is now the Czech Republic, writer Franz Kafka grew up in an upper middle-class Jewish family. After studying law at the University of Prague, he worked in insurance and wrote in the evenings. In 1923, he moved to Berlin to focus on writing, but died of tuberculosis shortly after.
