Heinrich Heine
Twelve Dancings are dancing, and taking no rest, And closely their hands together are press'd And soon as a dance has come to a close, Another begins, and each merrily goes.
Heinrich Heine
He is noble who both feels and acts nobly.
Heinrich Heine
Nature, like a true poet, abhors abrupt transitions.
Heinrich Heine

Heinrich Heine
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.

Heinrich Heine

Heinrich Heine
In action, the English have the advantage enjoyed by free men always entitled to free discussion: of having a ready judgment on every question. We Germans, on the other hand, are always thinking. We think so much that we never form a judgment.
Heinrich Heine
Pretty women without religion are like flowers without perfume.
Heinrich Heine
Wild, dark times are rumbling toward us, and the prophet who wishes to write a new apocalypse will have to invent entirely new beasts, and beasts so terrible that the ancient animal symbols of St. John will seem like cooing doves and cupids in comparison.
Heinrich Heine
Music is a strange thing. I would almost say it is a miracle.
Heinrich Heine
Freedom is a new religion, the religion of our time.
Heinrich Heine
Don't send a poet to London.
