I strive to be self-sufficient. I suppress my ambitions lest they make me needy.
Every once in a while a desire takes hold of me, possessing.
I fight it, lest I become vain. Lest I become dependent, and lose my freedom.

Sebastian Haffner: Defying Hitler: A Memoir
A VERY important book. Autobiographical notes written by an Aryan German describing the rise of Nazism from a (seemingly) insider’s point of view. An incredible insight into the nature of us, humans, that raises countless questions. Would we resist too?Marjane Satrapi : Persepolis : The Story of a Childhood
A wonderful autobiographical graphic novel about growing up in Iran during the Islamic revolution. Reading it was a unique experience for me.W. G. Sebald: Austerlitz
A masterpiece.
This must be one of my favorites. You must print + frame it. If not for yourself than for me.
