Hermann Hesse Quote

A ono sto se u meni dogadja u retkim casovima radosti, sto je za mene slast, dozivljaj, ekstaza i uzvisenost, to svet voli i trazi mozda jedino u pesnickim delima, a u zivotu smatra ludoscu. I odista, ako je svet u pravu, ako su ta muzika po kafanama, te masovne zabave, ti amerikanizovani ljudi, zadovoljni tako sitnim stvarima, u pravu- onda sam ja kriv, onda sam lud, onda sam odista, kako sam sebe cesto nazivao, stepski vuk, zivotinja koja je zalutala u tudj i nerazumljiv svet, koja vise ne nalazi onu svoju postojbinu, vazduh i hranu.
