Heinrich Heine

On the waves of the brook she dances by, The light, the lovely dragon-fly She dances here, she dances there, The shimmering, glimmering flutterer fair. And many a foolish young beetle's impressed By the blue gauze gown in which she is dressed They admire the enamel that decks her bright, And her elegant waist so slim and slight.
Heinrich Heine
Thought precedes action as lighting does thunder.
Heinrich Heine
The deepest truth blooms only from the deepest love.
Heinrich Heine
As the stars are the glory of the sky, so great men are the glory of their country, yea, of the whole earth.

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
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
Whether a revolution succeeds or fails people of great hearts will always be sacrificed to it.
Heinrich Heine
Newness hath an evanescent beauty.
Heinrich Heine
