Here you can read much about me, if you read more than what I've written down here. Sounds crazy, but is the truer [please write me if this construction is shit]. In this section you could find a list of the texts that I think influenced me most in becoming that what I am now. I don't want to advice you: "read these texts and you will become highly intelligent and the dream of all women" because this is not the truth. I can't even promise that these texts will be interesting for you, if you found my webpage interesting. Also some texts are as far as I know only available in German. Many thoughts, that speak against reading some of these texts, but there is one thing, that I can promise you: If you really enter into the ideas behind the texts, you will learn much about the world and it will change your character, change your way of thinking. Long proposal, here's the list:
