Heinrich Heine

Heinrich Heine
Every age thinks its battle the most important of all.
Heinrich Heine
In the image of the lion made He kittens small and curious.
Heinrich Heine
Perfumes are the feelings of flowers.
Heinrich Heine
Nature, like a true poet, abhors abrupt transitions.
Heinrich Heine
The violets prattle and titter, And gaze on the stars high above.
Heinrich Heine
If one has no heart, one cannot write for the masses.
Heinrich Heine
