The Metamorphosis -- Franz Kafka
"and isn't it a fact that by removing the furniture we're showing that we're giving up all hope of an improvement and are leaving him to his own resources without any consideration?" “Was he an animal that music so seized him?” "You must try to get rid of the idea that this is Gregor. The fact that we have believed for so long, that is truly our real misfortune. But how can it be Gregor? If it were Gregor, he would have long ago realized that a communal life among human beings is not possible with such an animal and would have gone away voluntarily." "I will not utter my brother's name in front of this monster, and thus I say only that we must try to get rid of it."
