The Master of the Day of Judgment QUOTES

1 " What do any of us really know about others? Each of us has his own Day of Judgement inside himself. "

― Leo Perutz , The Master of the Day of Judgment

2 " Does not every eternal masterpiece derive from the experience of disgrace, humiliation, wounded pride? The thoughtless mob may wildly applaud a work of art - to me it reveals the devastated mind of its creator. In all the great symphonies of tones, colours and ideas I see a gleam of the marvellous colour trumpet red, a faint reflection of the vision that for a short while raised the Master above the bewildering maze of his tormenting guilt. "

― Leo Perutz , The Master of the Day of Judgment

3 " Svaki pogled njenih očiju, svaku reč iz njenih usta želim da imam samo za sebe. To što ne mogu da se odvojim od nje, to što ne mogu da ustanem i zauvek završim s time! To boli, to gori u meni!"

"Ali demonima pakla je data sva moć, nastupio je dan, poslednji dan, sudnji dan, sotona trijumfuje nad grešnom dušom, i jadikujući ljudski glas se ruši sa visine i tone u Judinom smehu očajanja. "

― Leo Perutz , The Master of the Day of Judgment
