More quotes by Heinrich Heine
Sweet May hath come to love us, Flowers, trees, their blossoms don And through the blue heavens above us The very clouds move on.
Heinrich Heine
But a day must come when the fire of youth will be quenched in my veins, when winter will dwell in my heart, when his snow flakes will whiten my locks, and his mists will dim my eyes. Then my friends will lie in their lonely grave, and I alone will remain like a solitary stalk forgotten by the reaper.
Heinrich Heine
Those who begin by burning books will end by burning people.
Heinrich Heine
There, where one burns books... one, in the end, burns men.
Heinrich Heine

Heinrich Heine
Wherever books are burned, human beings are destined to be burned too.
Heinrich Heine

Each violet peeps from its dwelling to gaze at the bright stars above.
Heinrich Heine
My heart resembles the ocean has storm, and ebb and flow and many a beautiful pearl lies hid in its depths below.
Heinrich Heine

Heinrich Heine
Every age thinks its battle the most important of all.
Heinrich Heine
The violets prattle and titter, And gaze on the stars high above.
Heinrich Heine
Our sweetest hopes rise blooming. And then again are gone, They bloom and fade alternate, And so it goes rolling on. I know it, and it troubles My life, my love, my rest, My heart is wise and witty, And it bleeds within my breast.
Heinrich Heine
Matrimony the high sea for which no compass has yet been invented.
Heinrich Heine
