When we treat man as he is, we make him worse than he is; when we treat him as if he already were what he potentially could be, we make him what he should be.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

Mysterious in the light of day, nature retains her veil, despite our clamours: That which she does not willingly display cannot be wrenched from her with levers, screws and hammers.

Yes! to this thought I hold with firm persistence;
The last result of wisdom stamps it true;
He only earns his freedom and existence
Who daily conquers them anew.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

Children, like dogs, have so ...

Children, like dogs, have so sharp and fine a scent that they detect and hunt out everything--the bad before all the rest. They also know well enough how this or that friend stands with their parents; and as they practice no dissimulation whatever, they serve as excellent barometers by which to observe the degree of favor or disfavor at which we stand with their parents.

Thank God when He lays a burden on thee, and thank Him when He takes it off.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

We blame equally him who is too proud to put a proper value on his own merit and him who prizes too highly his spurious worth.
