More quotes by Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
God is the absolute truth...
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
In the Soul is the awaking of Consciousness: Consciousness sets itself up as Reason, awaking at one bound to the sense of its rationality: and this Reason by its activity emancipates itself to objectivity and the consciousness of its intelligent unity.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
The valor that struggles is better than the weakness that endures.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Consequently, the sensuous aspect of art is related only to the two theoretical sensesof sight and hearing, while smell, taste, and touch remain excluded.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Only one man ever understood me, and he didn't understand me
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
People who are too fastidious towards the finite never reach actuality, but linger in abstraction, and their light dies away.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
What history teaches us is that neither nations nor governments ever learn anything from it.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
The sole work and deed of universal freedom is therefore death, a death too which has no inner significance or filling, for what is negated is the empty point of the absolutely free self. It is thus the coldest and meanest of all deaths, with no more significance than cutting off a head of cabbage or swallowing a mouthful of water.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
Philosophy is the history of philosophy.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
What is rational is actual and what is actual is rational
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
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
War is progress, peace is stagnation.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
God is, as it were, the sewer into which all contradictions flow.
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
No man is a hero to his valet de chamber
Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
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
