The smallest hair throws its shadow. [Ger., Das kleinste Harr wirft seinen Schatten.]

One is led astray alike by sympathy and coldness, by praise and by blame

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

Stood I, O Nature! man alone ...

Stood I, O Nature! man alone in thee, Then were it worth one's while a man to be.

Always to distrust is an error, as well as always to trust.

At the end of life thoughts hitherto impossible come to the collected mind, like good spirits which let themselves down from the shining heights of the past.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

Old age is never honored amon...

Old age is never honored among us, but only indulged, as childhood is; and old men lose one of the most precious rights of man,--that of being judged by their peers.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

All lyrical work must, as a w...

All lyrical work must, as a whole, be perfectly intelligible, but in some particulars a little unintelligible.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

A noble soul alone can noble ...

A noble soul alone can noble souls attract; And knows alone, as ye, to hold them.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

What is not fully understood ...

What is not fully understood is not possessed.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

How can we learn self-knowled...

How can we learn self-knowledge? Never by taking thought but rather by action. Try to do your duty and you'll soon discover what you're like.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

After all, poets shouldn't be...

After all, poets shouldn't be their own interpreters and shouldn't carefully dissect their poems into everyday prose; that would mean the end of being poets. Poets send their creations into the world, it is up to the reader, the aesthetician, and the critic to determine what they wanted to say with their creations.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

True works of art are a manif...

True works of art are a manifestation of the higher laws of nature.

Character calls forth character.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

No two people see the world e...

No two people see the world exactly alike, and different temperaments will often apply the same principle, recognized by both, differently. Even one and the same person won't always maintain the same views and judgments: earlier convictions must give way to later ones.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

Woman is mistress of the art ...

Woman is mistress of the art of completely imbittering the life of the person on whom she depends.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

What we do not understand we do not possess.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

I have heard myself accused of being an opponent, an enemy of mathematics, which no one can value more highly than I, for it accomplishes the very thing whose achievement has been denied me.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

Men are so inclined to conten...

Men are so inclined to content themselves with what is commonest; the spirit and the senses so easily grow dead to the impressions of the beautiful and perfect, that every one should study, by all methods, to nourish in his mind the faculty of feeling these things. ...For this reason, one ought every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and, if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

The day is for mistake and er...

The day is for mistake and error, sequence of time for success and carrying out. The one who anticipates is master of the day.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 2265 quotes

To be sure, a good work of art can and will have moral consequences, but to demand of the artists moral intentions, means ruiningtheir craft.
