Image
The valor that struggles is better than the weakness that endures.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Image
Serious occupation is labor that has reference to some want.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Image
The proofs of the existence of God are to such an extent fallen into discredit that they pass for something antiquated, belonging to days gone by.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Image
When needs and means become abstract in quality, abstraction is also a character of the reciprocal relation of individuals to oneanother. This abstract character, universality, is the character of being recognized and is the moment which makes concrete, i.e. social, the isolated and abstract needs and their ways and means of satisfaction.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Image
In history, we are concerned with what has been and what is in philosophy, however, we are concerned not with what belongs exclusively to the past or to the future, but with that which is, both now and eternally — in short, with reason.

Whatever is reasonable is true, and whatever is true is reasonable
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

Regarding History as the slaughter-bench at which the happiness of peoples, the wisdom of States, and the virtue of individuals have been victimized--the question involuntarily arises--to what principle, to what final aim these enormous sacrifices have been offered.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Image
If you want to love you must serve, if you want freedom you must die.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Image
As high as mind stands above nature, so high does the state stand above physical life. Man must therefore venerate the state as a secular deity.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Image
Whatever happens, every individual is a child of his time so philosophy too is its own time apprehended in thoughts. It is just as absurd to fancy that a philosophy can transcend its contemporary world as it is to fancy that an individual can overleap his own age, jump over Rhodes.

The Catholics had been in the position of oppressors, and the Protestants of the oppressed

People who are too fastidious towards the finite never reach actuality, but linger in abstraction, and their light dies away.

God is, as it were, the sewer into which all contradictions flow.

The learner always begins by finding fault, but the scholar sees the positive merit in everything.
