#franz kafka you would've loved juan borgia #little guy is so sad he just wanted to be loved #and is trying his best to fulfill the massive expectations that he cannot begin to fulfill in the first place #he was only 19 commanding the papal army like goddamn #and the xenophobic attacks still get to him he's never self-assured #he neither had a peer nor someone to hold on to #i better stop before i start crying over him again #juan borgia #the borgias #david oakes #theborgiasedit #perioddramaedit #franz kafka #kafka #litedit #booksociety #letters to milena #literary quotes #by jen #dailykafka
