Zweig on Stuff

I don’t want any posessions. Posessions make a man heavy, old, fat and sluggish. I want to be on the way somewhere, travelling light.”

This quote from Stefan Zweig might not exist anywhere else on the Internet. I got it from Escape to Life (1933) by Erika and Klauss Mann, reviewed, incidentally, in Issue 17.
