Hermann Hesse Quotes
Hot 3
1. It is not our purpose to become each other; it is to recognize each other, to learn to see the other and honor him for what he is.
2. As a body is single, as a soul never.
3. If you hate a person, you hate something in him that is part of yourself. What isn't part of ourselves doesn't disturb us.
4. Only the ideas that we really live have any value.
5. Words do not express thoughts very well. They always become a little different immediately after they are expressed, a little distorted, a little foolish.
6. Some of us think holding on makes us strong; but sometimes it is letting go.
7. Meaning and reality were not hidden somewhere behind things, they were in them, in all of them.
Hermann Hesse is one of my favorite writers.

- Does. Language has its limitations. There is an old saying, "there is an end to words,but the meaning is endless". Hesse is a very great writer, as soon as I read Siddhartha, I immediately fell in love with his works.
