"...I saw horses shaking their manes in the rays of the sun, as if they were trying to shake them off, but they were unable to - I thought we do this too, try shake off the good that we are given, but are not always able too - or we are not given the ability to do it. In some places very serious storks were walking and did not look back, but the train went by squeaking and whistling - how unpoetic it was."

-Benedikt Sveinbjarnarson Gröndal (1826-1907), transl. by Gauti Kristmannsson

"What is necessary, after all, is only this: solitude. To walk inside yourself and meet no one for hours-that is what you must be able to attain. To be solitary as you were when you were a child, when the grownups walked around involved with matters that seemed large and important because they looked so busy and you did not understand a thing about what they were doing."

-from Letters to a Young Poet by Rainier Maria Rilke, transl. by Stephen Mitchell

"All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned, and man is compelled to face with sober senses, his real conditions of life, and his relations with his kind."

-from Manifest der Kommunistischen Partei by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels
