As machines become more and more efficient and perfect, so it will become clear that imperfection is the greatness of man.
Ernst Fischer

Ernst Fischer

If you can't pay for a thing, don't buy it. If you can't get paid for it, don't sell it. Do this, and you will have calm and drowsy nights, with all of the good business you have now and none of the bad. If you have time, don't wait for time.
Ernst Fischer

Ernst Fischer

Ernst Fischer

To provoke dreams of terror in the slumber of prosperity has become the moral duty of literature.
Ernst Fischer
