Kraus, Karl

Before you let life endure you, you should let yourself be anesthetized

Education is what most receive, many pass on and few have (Pro domo et mundo)

The agitator's secret is to make himself as stupid as his listeners are, so that they think they are as clever as he is

Life is an effort worthy of a better cause

The worst is when celebrities call celebrities celebrities

The word "family ties" smacks of truth

Sexual intercourse does not keep what masturbation promises

The journalist is always someone who later knew everything before

The psychoanalyst is a father confessor who longs to listen to the sins of the fathers

The German language is the deepest, the German speech the shallowest

Some seduce and leave, others marry and leave. These are the more unscrupulous

We have freedom of thought. Now we just need the thoughts

The goddess of justice is blind, plugs her ears and puts on a chastity belt

Medicine: money and life!

The newspaper is the preserve of the time
