When Demian was written in 1919, when the name of the concept of spirituality was not yet in the market, he presented a wisdom far beyond his time. The book had such a shocking effect at the time of its publication that later (in 1946) it played a major role in the author's winning the Nobel Prize for literature. However, it cannot be said that the book is still fully known in our country even today. Tayfun Topalo\u011flu talks about Demian as \u201cthe only thing that awakens my dream\u201d. Our author also has a dream to turn this book into a movie. Here are the best quotes from that wonderful book that awakens dreams.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEvery man's life is a path that leads him to himself, a test of a path, a sketch of a path. No human has ever been one hundred percent himself, but still, everyone progresses as much as they can, some a little more open, some a little more blindfolded\u2026 We all come from the same depths, but as a sketch, as a creature coming out of the depths, each of us, as a creature from the depths, has our own We work hard to reach our goal. We can understand each other, but we can only explain and interpret ourselves.\u201d<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n

If someone absolutely needs something and takes possession of it, it is not accidental that makes it happen; himself, the desire and necessity within himself, took him to the relevant object.<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cWhat we see outside is the same as what we see inside. There is no other truth but the truth that we carry within us. The reason why most people lead such a life contrary to reality is that they regard the image outside of themselves as real and never give a voice to the world inside them. Yes, it can make people happy. But once a person becomes conscious of the matter, there is no question of choosing the path followed by the majority. My friend Sinclair, the path of the majority is easy, ours is difficult.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n

There is only one task that awaits the awakened people: to seek oneself, to find a firmness in oneself, to grope along the unique path, to ignore where the road will lead\u2026 This shook me deeply, it was the fruit of the life in question for me. I have often played with dreams of the future, perhaps the future roles that await me as a poet or a prophet, perhaps a painter, perhaps someone else. All this was nothing. I was not born to write poetry, preach, paint; neither I nor anyone else was on earth for such a purpose. These were all things that appeared in between and remained in the background. There was really only one occupation for everyone; finding yourself.<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n

When we hate a person, we hate someone who burrows within ourselves and comes up with the image of that person. What is not in ourselves does not make us angry.<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cDemian pointed out that people from all directions gather and form herds, whereas freedom and love are nowhere to be found. He explained that all these gatherings, from student associations, song and folk song ensembles to nations, are of a forced nature, due to boredom, fear and not knowing what to do. But it can never be called a draw for the situation that we see growing up all over the place. A true togetherness will be born new, will result from individuals getting to know each other better, and will give another shape to the world for a while. What is now observed under the name of togetherness is simply a herd formation.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

If people are running away from each other, it is because they are afraid of each other. Gentlemen take shelter among themselves, workers among themselves, scholars again among themselves, fleeing to each other and taking shelter. So why are they afraid of each other? A person who cannot come to terms with himself is afraid alone. If the present are afraid, it is because they do not want to know themselves.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n

Eva: \u201cIt is always difficult to be born, to open one's eyes to the world. You know, a bird has a hard time hatching from an egg. Turn your eyes back and ask: Was the road really that difficult? Was it just power? Wasn't she also beautiful? Did you know a better, easier way than this?"<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n
Sinclair: \u201cI said it was difficult, as if talking in sleep. It was strong until the dream came.\u201d<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n

Sinclair: \u201cBut what is this will? You both mention that the will of a person cannot be considered free, and you also say that as long as a person directs his will towards a certain goal, then you can achieve that goal. Does such a thing ever happen! If I can't control my own will, is it conceivable that I can direct it on this or that object as I wish?" <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Demian: \u201cGood thing you asked! he said, laughing. You will always ask, you will always doubt. Now what you are asking is very simple. Suppose a moth wanted to direct its will to a star or something, it would never succeed. He does not even attempt such a thing, he only looks at what has meaning and importance to him, which he needs and must seize. And it can handle even unbelievable things. He develops such a magical sixth sense that such a sense is not found in any other animal! Undoubtedly, the sphere of activity of a human being is wider than that of an animal, the objects we are interested in are more. But we also live trapped in a very narrow circle. We can't get out of this circle. Of course I can fantasize about or something. For example, I might think I need to go to the North Pole or something like that, but the desire comes from within myself and only if my being is truly overflowing with such desire, then I can desire and accomplish a certain thing strongly enough. If you experience such a situation and try to do something that you are commanded to do from your own heart, you will be successful, and then you can use your willpower to work like a horse in front of a car.\u201d<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cMaybe Demian was handsome, maybe I liked him, but maybe I was disgusted with him, which was unpredictable; All I saw was that he was different from us, as if he was an animal, a ghost or an image, I don't know what it was like, but it was different, inconceivably different from us."<\/span><\/strong><\/div>\n

\n<\/span>Note: <\/span><\/strong>Hermann Hesse first published Demian in 1919 under the pseudonym Emil Sinclair. His aim is to see the repercussions this book will evoke, regardless of the influence of his own famous name. The book made a huge splash and won the Fontaine Award. However, Hermann Hesse does not show up and does not receive the award.<\/span><\/div>\n
