Baroness Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach (Czech: Marie von Ebner-Eschenbachová, German: Marie Freifrau von Ebner-Eschenbach; September 13, 1830 - March 12, 1916) was an Austrian writer. Noted for her excellent psychological novels, she is regarded—together with Ferdinand von Saar—as one of the most important German-language writers of the latter portion of the 19th century.
She was born at the castle of DubskĂ˝ (Graf von TĹ™ebomyslice) family in Zdislavice near KroměřĂĹľ in Moravia, Czech Republic, and died in Vienna, Austria.
She is credited with the famous aphorism "even a stopped clock is right twice a day."[1]
