Franz Kafka’s Diaries – Osvaldo Licini

Osvaldo Licini, “Amalasunta occhio giallo”, 1950

I never wish to be easily defined. I’d rather float over other people’s minds as something strictly fluid and non-perceivable; more like a transparent, paradoxically iridescent creature rather than an actual person.

Franz Kafka; from a diary entry dated 23 March 1914
