Arthur Schnitzler: Tagebuch 1879–1931 — digital edition (2021) · Dated diary entry 1924-06-16; text body

Traum, es sei Krieg; irgendwie die Frauen betheiligt, auch meine, die übrigens niemandem gleich sieht, ein schwarzes kleines Wesen;― Gefahr, die Stadt belagert, ich, auf dem Bett sitzend, mühe mich vergeblich, meine Toilette zu beenden, mich an der Flucht zu betheiligen; es gibt für die Frauen keine Rettung;― höre irgend ein Heulen (mein Ohrengeräusch),― leere, aber irgendwie fluchtschwangre Straßen, all dies ganz vag, erwache schreiend.
