Who has witnessed one free and unconstrained act of yours, has witnessed all.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

The enemy of art is the enemy...

The enemy of art is the enemy of nature; art is nothing but the highest sagacity and exertion of human nature; and what nature will he honour who honours not the human?

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

He knows not how to speak who...

He knows not how to speak who cannot be silent; still less how to act with vigour and decision. - Who hastens to the end is silent: loudness is impotence.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

If you wish to appear agreeab...

If you wish to appear agreeable in society, you must consent to be taught many things which you already know.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

He can feel no little wants who is in pursuit of grandeur.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

He scatters enjoyment who can enjoy much.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

Who will sacrifice nothing, a...

Who will sacrifice nothing, and enjoy all, is a fool.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

A gift--its kind, its value a...

A gift--its kind, its value and appearance; the silence or the pomp that attends it; the style in which it reaches you--may decide the dignity or vulgarity of the giver.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

The worst of all knaves are t...

The worst of all knaves are those who can mimic their former honesty.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

Who forces himself on others ...

Who forces himself on others is to himself a load. Impetuous curiosity is empty and inconstant. Prying intrusion may be suspected of whatever is little.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

The man who loves with his wh...

The man who loves with his whole heart truth will love still more he who suffers for truth.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

He who always seeks more ligh...

He who always seeks more light the more he finds, and finds more the more he seeks, is one of the few happy mortals who take and give in every point of time. The tide and ebb of giving and receiving is the sum of human happiness, which he alone enjoys who always wishes to acquire new knowledge, and always finds it.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

There are many kinds of smile...

There are many kinds of smiles, each having a distinct character. Some announce goodness and sweetness, others betray sarcasm, bitterness and pride; some soften the countenance by their languishing tenderness, others brighten by their spiritual vivacity.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

He who, silent, loves to be w...

He who, silent, loves to be with us - he who loves us in our silence - has touched one of the keys that ravish hearts.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

He whom common, gross, or sta...

He whom common, gross, or stale objects allure, and when obtained, content, is a vulgar being, incapable of greatness in thought or action.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

Weaknesses, so called, are no...

Weaknesses, so called, are nothing more nor less than vice in disguise!

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

Thinkers are as scarce as gold.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

The greatest of characters, n...

The greatest of characters, no doubt, would be he, who, free of all trifling accidental helps, could see objects through one grand immutable medium, always at hand, and proof against illusion and time, reflecting every object in its true shape and colour through all the fluctuation of things.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

He whose pride oppresses the ...

He whose pride oppresses the humble may perhaps be humbled, but will never be humble.

Johann Kaspar Lavater 277 quotes

The obstinacy of the indolent...

The obstinacy of the indolent and weak is less conquerable than that of the fiery and bold.
