You need not do anything.
Remain sitting at your table and listen.
You need not even listen, just wait.
You need not even wait,
just learn to be quiet, still and solitary.
And the world will freely offer itself to you unmasked.
It has no choice, it will roll in ecstasy at your feet.

- Franz Kafka

I am not as familiar with Kafka as I probably should be. You always find the most amazing quotes!

Thank you for sharing this.
