Who is the happiest man? He who is alive to the merit of others, and can rejoice in their enjoyment as if it were his own.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

The greatest evil that can befall man is that he should come to think ill of himself.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

A man does not mind being bla...

A man does not mind being blamed for his faults, and being punished for them, and he patiently suffers much for them; but he becomes impatient if he is required to give them up.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

There is no better deliveranc...

There is no better deliverance from the world than through art, and a man can form no surer bond with it.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

You can’t, if you can’t feel ...

You can’t, if you can’t feel it, if it never Rises from the soul, and sways The heart of every single hearer, With deepest power, in simple ways. You’ll sit forever, gluing things together, Cooking up a stew from other’s scraps, Blowing on a miserable fire, Made from your heap of dying ash. Let apes and children praise your art, If their admiration’s to your taste, But you’ll never speak from heart to heart, Unless it rises up from your heart’s space.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

Our passions are true phoenix...

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

I could never have known so w...

I could never have known so well how paltry men are, and how little they care for really high aims, if I had not tested them by my scientific researches. Thus I saw that most men only care for science so far as they get a living by it, and that they worship even error when it affords them a subsistence.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

When translating one must pro...

When translating one must proceed up to the intranslatable; only then one becomes aware of the foreign nation and the foreign tongue.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

The world runs on from one fo...

The world runs on from one folly to another; and the man who, solely from regard to the opinion of others, and without any wish or necessity of his own, toils after gold, honour, or any other phantom, is no better than a fool.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

Opponents fancy they refute us when they repeat their own opinion and pay no attention to ours.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

I wish the stage were as narr...

I wish the stage were as narrow as the wire of a tighrope dancer so that no incompetent would dare step upon it.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

Nature does not suffer her veil to be taken from her, and what she does not choose to reveal to the spirit, thou wilt not wrest from her by levers and screws.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

If in the infinite you want to stride, Just walk in the finite to every side.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

Words are mere sound and smoke, dimming the heavenly light.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

What we agree with leaves us ...

What we agree with leaves us inactive, but contradiction makes us productive.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

Who is sure of their own motives can in confidence advance or retreat.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

Experiments are mediators between nature and idea.

You don't love if you don't take the beloved's faults for virtues.

It is not enough to have knowledge; one must apply it. It is not enough to have wishes; one must also accomplish it.
