Heinrich Heine
In dark ages people are best guided by religion, as in a pitch-black night a blind man is the best guide he knows the roads and paths better than a man who can see. When daylight comes, however, it is foolish to use blind, old men as guides.
Heinrich Heine
Freedom is a new religion, the religion of our time.
Heinrich Heine
Wherever they burn books they will also, in the end, burn human beings.
