Stefan Zweig Frases famosas

“Não cesso de me surpreender com a confusão e insuficiência das idéias sobre este país, até mesmo entre homens cultos e interessados pela política, bem que o Brasil seja, sem dúvida alguma, destinado a ser um fator dos mais importantes no desenvolvimento ulterior de nosso mundo.”

“A primeira mostra de uma autêntica vocação política é, em todos os tempos, que um homem renuncie desde o princípio a exigir aquilo que lhe é inalcançável.”

“Sempre os que dizem de antemão que lutam em nome de Deus são pessoas menos pacíficas do mundo: como crêem que recebem mensagens celestiais, têm os ouvidos surdos para qualquer palavra de humanidade.”

“A calma é um elemento criador. Purifica, recolhe, põe em ordem as forças internas, compensando o que o desordenado movimento dispersa.”

“Aqueles que anunciam que lutam a favor de Deus são sempre os homens menos pacíficos da terra. Como crêem receber mensagens celestiais, têm os ouvidos surdos a qualquer palavra de humanidade.”

“Cada um de nós é vencido apenas pelo destino que não soube dominar. Não há derrota que não tenha um significado e não represente também uma culpa.”

Citações de vida de Stefan Zweig

“A tragédia do intelectual é que se sente atraído pela plenitude da vida e tem de ficar atado à sua tarefa, ligado aos deveres que impõe a si mesmo, amarrado ao ordenado, ao prosaico.”

“Só goza a vida aquele que viva para viver e se lhe entregue livre e prodigamente. Todo aquele que fixa uma meta apenas a toca. O artista plasma, geralmente, o que não chega a viver.”

“A vida não dá coisa alguma sem retribuição e sobre cada coisa concedida pelo destino, há secretamente um preço, que cedo ou tarde deverá ser pago.”

Stefan Zweig frases e citações

“Toda a beleza do ser humano consiste em se tornar algo melhor do que se foi.”

No livro ‘Morte no Paraíso’, de Alberto Dines, ROCCO

“Nada torna as pessoas mais desnaturalizadas e insubordinadas do que uma longa e constante ociosidade.”

“"Meus pais não eram muito ligados em literatura e não se julgaram aptos a opinar; para eles, como para toda a burguesia vienense, era importante o que era elogiado na Neue Freie Presse e indiferente o que ela ignorava ou censurava".‎”

“Toda a ciência provém da dor. A dor procura sempre a causa das coisas, enquanto o bem-estar se inclina a estar quieto e a não olhar para trás.”

“A velhice não significa mais do que deixar de sofrer pelo passado.”

“Hábeis e frios calculadores podem vir demonstrar, ainda e sempre, que o sonho do erasmismo é impossível, e os factos poderão parecer dar-lhes razão; isso nao impede que sejam sempre necessários os seres que indicam aos povos aquilo que os aproxima e aquilo que os divide, e que renovam no coração dod homens a crença em mais alta humanidade. Há no legado de Erasmo uma promessa criadora. Aquele que mostra o espírito fora do seu quadro, nas dimensões da Humanidade, dá ao indivíduo uma forma sobre-humana; só as reivindicações ultrapessoais e que parecerem quase irrealizáveis, dão aos homens e aos povos a consciência da sua verdadeira medida.”

Erasmus von Rotterdam: Triumph und Tragik

“Mas no espírito, há lugar para todas as oposições; mesmo o que nunca triunfa, na realidade, conserva um dinamismo eficaz, e são precisamente os sonhos que nao se podem efectivar os que se mostram mais invencíveis.”

“Envelhecer é apenas não ter mais medo do passado”

“Je ne cesse de m’étonner de la confusion et de l’insuffisance des idées à propos de ce pays, chez des hommes même cultivés er prenant intérêt à la politique, alors que le Brésil est sans aucun doute, destiné à être un facteur des plus importants dans le développement ultérieur de notre monde.”

Stefan Zweig: Frases em inglês

“Most people have very little imagination. They are hardly moved by anything which does not directly touch them, which does not positively hammer its message upon their senses; but even a trifle, should it happen under their very eyes, and within the immediate range of their feelings, will instantly kindle in them a disproportionate amount of passion. We may say that the rarity of their interest is compensated by an inappropriate and exaggerated vehemence when their interest is at last aroused.”

Stefan Zweig livro Beware of Pity

Beware of Pity (1939)

“My father was a schoolmaster in a little North German town, and for the very reason that at home culture was a means of livelihood, I detested learning and literature from childhood onwards. That is nature's way. In pursuance of her mysterious design to safeguard the creative faculty, she is apt to make children scorn their father's bent. She does not want to encourage an easy, effortless acceptance of a heritage, a mere handing down of acquisitions from one generation to the next. She sows the seeds of discord, and will only allow children to follow in their parent's footsteps after they have made laborious but fruitful detours.”

Confusion of Feelings or Confusion: The Private Papers of Privy Councillor R. Von D (1927)

“Nothing moves young people so much as to witness a sublime and virile gloom. Michelangelo's thinker staring down into the abyss of his own thoughts, Beethoven's poignantly drawn lips; these tragical masks of universal suffering touch the crude emotions of youth far more than Mozart's silver melodies or the crystalline light that radiates from Leonardo's figures. Being itself beauty, youth has no need of transfiguration. In the superabundance of its vital forces, it is allured by the tragical, and in its inexperience, is prone to accept the embraces of melancholy. That, too, is why youth is always ready for danger, and ever willing to extend a brotherly hand towards mental pain.”

“To the young, what can be more disturbing, what more unsettling and tantalizing, than the play of vague suspicions? The fancy, ceasing to wander in the void, concentrates upon a definite aim, and luxuriates in the febrile pleasures of the chase.”

“Someone who's on top of the world isn't much of an observer: happy people are poor psychologists. But someone who's troubled about something is on the alert. The perceived threat sharpens his senses - he takes in more than he usually does.”

The Post Office Girl (published posthumously in 1982)

“Unhappiness makes people vulnerable, incessant suffering unjust. Just as in the relations between a creditor and a debtor there is always an element of the disagreeable that can never be overcome, for the very reason that the one is irrevocably committed to the role of giver and the other to that of receiver, so in a sick person a latent feeling of resentment at every obvious sign of consideration is always ready to burst forth.”

“There's an inherent limit to the stress that any material can bear. Water has its boiling point, metals their melting points. The elements of the spirit behave the same way. Happiness can reach a pitch so great that any further happiness can't be felt. Pain, despair, humiliation, disgust, and fear are no different. Once the vessel is full, the world can't add to it.”

“It always demands a far greater degree of courage for an individual to oppose an organized movement than to let himself be carried along with the stream — individual courage, that is, a variety of courage that is dying out in these times of progressive organization and mechanization. During the war practically the only courage I ran across was mass courage, the courage that comes of being one of a herd, and anyone who examines this phenomenon more closely will find it to be compounded of some very strange elements: a great deal of vanity, a great deal of fear — yes, fear of staying behind, fear of being sneered at fear of independent action, and fear, above all, of taking up a stand against the mass enthusiasm of one's fellows.”

Beware of Pity (1939)

“We live through myriads of seconds, but there is only one second among all these myriads which brings our whole inner world to the boil; the second in which, as Stendhal described, there suddenly takes place a crystallization in the supersaturated blood; a magical second like that of procreation, and, like it, hidden in the warm interior of one's own body, invisible, intangible, impalpable, a unique experience of mystery. No algebra of the soul can calculate it; no alchemy can divine it. Usually, even for ourselves, it remains unsearchable.”

Beware of Pity (1939)

“There are two kinds of pity. One, the weak and sentimental kind, which is really no more than the heart's impatience to be rid as quickly as possible of the painful emotion aroused by the sight of another's unhappiness, that pity which is not compassion, but only an instinctive desire to fortify one's own soul agains the sufferings of another; and the other, the only one at counts, the unsentimental but creative kind, which knows what it is about and is determined to hold out, in patience and forbearance, to the very limit of its strength and even beyond.”
