It is easier to make a lady of a peasant-girl than a peasant-girl of a lady.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

Touch not the flute when drums...

Touch not the flute when drums are sounding around; when fools have the word, the wise will be silent.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

Say oh wise man how you have c...

Say oh wise man how you have come to such knowledge? Because I was never ashamed to confess my ignorance and ask others.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

What of us lies in the hearts ...

What of us lies in the hearts of others is our truest and deepest self.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

All our science calculates wit...

All our science calculates with abstracted individual external marks, which do not touch the inner existence of any single thing

To think what is true, to sense what is beautiful and to want what is good, hereby the spirit finds purpose of a life in reason.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

The friend who holds up before...

The friend who holds up before me the mirror, conceals not my smallest faults, warns me kindly, reproves me affectionately, when I have not performed my duty, he is my friend, however little he may appear so. But if a man praises and lauds me, never reproves me, overlooks my faults, and forgives them before I have repented, he is my enemy, however much he may appear my friend.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

Brave is the lion tamer, brave...

Brave is the lion tamer, brave is the world subduer, but braver is the one who has subdued himself.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

Have you never observed that c...

Have you never observed that children will sometimes, of a sudden, give utterance to ideas which makes us wonder how they got possession of them? Which presuppose a long series of other ideas and secret self-communings? Which break forth like a full stream out of the earth, an infallible sign that the stream was not produced in a moment from a few raindrops, but had long been flowing concealed beneath the ground?

Johann Herder 27 quotes

Those that embrace the entire ...

Those that embrace the entire universe with love, for the most part love nothing, but their narrow selves.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

Man is a central creature between the animals, that is to say, the most perfect form, which unites the traits of all in the most complete epitome.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

The roots of the deepest love ...

The roots of the deepest love die in the heart, if not tenderly cherished.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

As the shadow in early morning...

As the shadow in early morning, is friendship with the wicked; it dwindles hour by hour. But friendship with the good increases, like the evening shadows, till the sun of life sets.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

The working of revolutions mis...

The working of revolutions misleads me no more; it is as necessary to our race as its waves to the stream, that it may not be a stagnant marsh. Ever renewed in its forms, the genius of humanity blossoms.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

We live in a world we ourselves create.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

It is a hard but good law of fate, that as every evil, so every excessive power, wears itself out.

Whoever perseveres will be crowned.

Thus we build on the ice, thus we write on the waves of the sea; the waves roaring pass away, the ice melts, and away goes our palace, like our thoughts.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

Without inspiration the best powers of the mind remain dormant. There is a fuel in us which needs to be ignited with sparks.

Johann Herder 27 quotes

So says the most ancient book ...

So says the most ancient book of the Earth; thus it is written on its leaves of marble, lime, sand, slate, and clay: ... that our Earth has fashioned itself, from its chaos of substances and powers, through the animating warmth of the creative spirit, to a peculiar and original whole, by a series of preparatory revolutions, till at last the crown of its creation, the exquisite and tender creature man, was enabled to appear.
