Quotes by Martin Mosebach (?)

“They didn鈥檛 seem to struggle over the decision: what they held already, in the form of faith, was infinitely more precious to them than anything they could have acquired if they gave it up. Life itself, without faith, would have been worthless to them. It would be mere existence 鈥� an existence more lowly than that of the animals, for animals are perfect in and of themselves, but humans are imperfect; their aim for perfection requires divine assistance.”
― Martin Mosebach, The 21: A Journey into the Land of Coptic Martyrs

― Martin Mosebach, The 21: A Journey into the Land of Coptic Martyrs

“Ein starker Herrschaftswillen ruft bei den Beherrschten freilich auch die Neugier hervor, dessen Grenzen auszuerproben. Wer herrschen will, mu脽 anwesend sein.”
