More quotes by Heinrich Heine
The arrow belongs not to the archer when it has once left the bow the word no longer belongs to the speaker when it has once passed his lips, especially when it has been multiplied by the press.
Heinrich Heine
In earlier religions the spirit of the time was expressed through the individual and confirmed by miracles. In modern religions the spirit is expressed through the many and confirmed by reason.
Heinrich Heine
Sleep is lovely, death is better still, not to have been born is of course the miracle.
Heinrich Heine
Lyrical poetry is much the same an every age, as the songs of the nightingales in every spring-time.
Heinrich Heine
Like a great poet, Nature produces the greatest results with the simplest means. These are simply a sun, trees, flowers, water and love.
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
While we are indifferent to our good qualities, we keep on deceiving ourselves in regard to our faults, until we come to look on them as virtues.
Heinrich Heine
First, I thought, almost despairing, This must crush my spirit now Yet I bore it, and am bearing- Only do not ask me how.
Heinrich Heine

Heinrich Heine
Sweet May lies fresh before us, To life the young flowers leap, And through the Heaven's blue o'er us The rosy cloudlets sweep.
Heinrich Heine
There are more fools in the world than there are people.
Heinrich Heine
Reason exercises merely the function of preserving order, is, so to say, the police in the region of art. In life it is mostly a cold arithmetician summing up our follies.
Heinrich Heine
When'er into thine eyes I see, All pain and sorrow fly from me. [Ger., Wenn ich in deine Augen sch' So schwindet all' mein Leid und Weh.]
Heinrich Heine
Write . . . write . . . pencil . . . paper.
Heinrich Heine
All I really want is enough to live on, a little house in the country... and a tree in the garden with seven of my enemies hanging in it.
Heinrich Heine
In the image of the lion made He kittens small and curious.
Heinrich Heine
The deepest truth blooms only from the deepest love.
Heinrich Heine
Poverty sits by the cradle of all our great men and rocks all of them to manhood.
Heinrich Heine
