Wherever they burn books they will also, in the end, burn human beings.
Heinrich Heine
The air grows cool and darkles, The Rhine flows calmly on The mountain summit sparkles In the light of the setting sun.
Heinrich Heine

Heinrich Heine

Heinrich Heine
I call'd the devil, and he came, And with wonder his form did I closely scan He is not ugly, and is not lame, But really a handsome and charming man. A man in the prime of life is the devil, Obliging, a man of the world, and civil A diplomatist too, well skill'd in debate, He talks quite glibly of church and state.
Heinrich Heine
The lotus flower is troubled At the sun's resplendent light With sunken head and sadly She dreamily waits for the night.
Heinrich Heine
I fell asleep reading a dull book and dreamed I kept on reading, so I awoke from sheer boredom.
Heinrich Heine
Reform Judaism is like mock turtle soup-turtle soup without the turtle
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
In the image of the lion made He kittens small and curious.
Heinrich Heine
Perfumes are the feelings of flowers, and as the human heart, imagining itself alone and unwatched, feels most deeply in the night-time, so seems it as if the flowers, in musing modesty, await the mantling eventide ere they give themselves up wholly to feeling...
Heinrich Heine
Out of my own great woe I make my little songs.
Heinrich Heine
He who fights with priests may make up his mind to have his poor good name torn and befouled by the most infamous lies and the most cutting slanders.
Heinrich Heine
It is a common phenomenon that just the prettiest girls find it so difficult to get a man.
Heinrich Heine
Money is the god of our time, and Rothschild is his prophet.
