Quotes by Thomas Mann
An art whose medium is language will always show a high degree of critical creativeness, for speech is itself a critique of life: it names, it characterizes, it passes judgment, in that it creates.
Animals do not admire each other. A horse does not admire its companion.
A man's dying is more his survivor's affair than his own.
A great truth is a truth whose opposite is also a truth.
A harmful truth is better than a useful lie.
