Franz Kafka

He was a profound thinker.  I do not agree with a lot of what he says and some of it is down right confusing.  I don't see how it was impatience that got Adam and Eve expelled from paradise.  What were they impatient about?  They were already immortal as the bible would say, they had almost everything they wanted,  what got them kicked out was they wanted the one thing they could not have.  Fruit from the garden of good and evil.  I do partially agree that the reason they don't return is due to indolence.  All it takes it effort to find God.  If one does that they will most likely find him.  I like the line " beyond a certain point there is no return. This point has to be reached."  When someone finds the truth there is no going back.  Even if that person turn from the truth they still know it.  They will never be able to get rid of the knowledge of what is true.  He seems to have some aspect of Chinese religion in his philosophy.  Notably where he states " Idleness is the beginning of all vices, the crown of all virtue."  It is the same as do not doing.
