One idiot is one idiot. Two idiots are two idiots. Ten thousand idiots are a political party.

Misattributed

By believing passionately in something which still does not exist, we create it. The nonexistent is whatever we have not sufficiently desired.

Misattributed to Kafka in Ambiguous Spaces (2008)

Don't bend; don't water it down; don't try to make it logical; don't edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.
