More quotes by Friedrich Schleiermacher

Image
Belief must be something different from a mixture of opinions about God and the world, and of precepts for one life or for two. Piety cannot be an instinct craving for a mess of metaphysical and ethical crumbs.
Friedrich Schleiermacher
Image
Whenever I find a spark of that hidden fire that will sooner or later consume the old and create the new, I am drawn to it with love and hope, regarding it as a sign of my future home.
Friedrich Schleiermacher
Image
Since each person, as an individual, is the not-being of the other, it is never possible to eliminate non-understanding completely.
Friedrich Schleiermacher
Image
Either the translator leaves the author in peace, as much as is possible, and moves the reader towards him: or he leaves the reader in peace, as much as possible, and moves the author towards him.
Friedrich Schleiermacher
Image
Virtue is only a conflict by which we get the mastery of our failings that, by which every man proves his peculiar power of understanding the will and spirit of God, is only a silent working of the inner man.
Friedrich Schleiermacher
