Image
Thought is invisible nature.
Heinrich Heine
Image
The butterfly long loved the beautiful rose, And flirted around all day While round him in turn with her golden caress, Soft fluttered the sun's warm ray.... I know not with whom the rose was in love, But I know that I loved them all. The butterfly, rose, and the sun's bright ray, The star and the bird's sweet call.
Heinrich Heine
Image
Where books are burned in the end people will be burned too.
Heinrich Heine
Image
The swan, like the soul of the poet, By the dull world is ill understood.
Heinrich Heine
Image
What lies lurk in kisses.
Heinrich Heine
Image
So we keep asking, over and over,Until a handful of earthStops our mouths -But is that an answer?
Heinrich Heine
Image
Perfumes are the feelings of flowers.
Heinrich Heine
Image
The stones here speak to me, and I know their mute language. Also, they seem deeply to feel what I think. So a broken column of the old Roman times, an old tower of Lombardy, a weather- beaten Gothic piece of a pillar understands me well. But I am a ruin myself, wandering among ruins.
Heinrich Heine
Image
Ordinarily he was insane, but he had lucid moments when he was merely stupid
Heinrich Heine
Image
Oh fair, oh sweet and holy as dew at morning tide, I gaze on thee, and yearnings, sad in my bosom hide.
Heinrich Heine
Image
The spring's already at the gate With looks my care beguiling The country round appeareth straight A flower-garden smiling.
Heinrich Heine
Image
Like a great poet, Nature knows how to produce the greatest effects with the most limited means.
Heinrich Heine
Image
No talent, but yet a character. [Ger., Kein talent, doch ein Charakter.]
Heinrich Heine
Image
Tell me who first did kisses suggest? It was a mouth all glowing and blest It kissed and it thought of nothing beside. The fair month of May was then in its pride, The flowers were all from the earth fast springing, The sun was laughing, the birds were singing.
Heinrich Heine
Image
The men of the past had convictions, while we moderns have only opinions.
Heinrich Heine
Image
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
Image
There, where one burns books... one, in the end, burns men.
Heinrich Heine
Image
Thought precedes action as lighting does thunder.
Heinrich Heine
Image
I do not know if she was virtuous, but she was ugly, and with a woman that is half the battle.
Heinrich Heine
Image
My heart resembles the ocean has storm, and ebb and flow and many a beautiful pearl lies hid in its depths below.
Heinrich Heine
