Jean Paul
Image
The happiness of life consists, like the day, not in single flashes (of light), but in one continuous mild serenity. The most beautiful period of the heart's existence is in this calm equable light, even although it be only moonshine or twilight. Now the mind alone can obtain for us this heavenly cheerfulness and peace.
Jean Paul
Image
Beauty attracts us men but if, like an armed magnet it is pointed, beside, with gold and silver, it attracts with tenfold power.
Jean Paul

Jean Paul
Image

Jean Paul
Image
Memory, wit, fancy, acuteness, cannot grow young again in old age, but the heart can.
Jean Paul
Image

Jean Paul
Image
Every man has a rainy corner of his life whence comes foul weather which follows him.
Jean Paul
Image
It is not the end of joy that makes old age so sad, but the end of hope.
Jean Paul
Image
The gymnasium of running, walking on stilts, climbing, etc. stells and makes hardy single powers and muscles, but dancing, like a corporeal poesy, embellishes, exercises, and equalizes all the muscles at once.
Jean Paul
Image
It is simpler and easier to flatter people than to praise them.
Jean Paul
Image
Variety of mere nothings gives more pleasure than uniformity of something.
