More quotes by Jean Paul
Romanticism is beauty without bounds-the beautiful infinite.
Jean Paul
Poverty is the only load which is the heavier the more loved ones there are to assist in bearing it.
Jean Paul
The words that a father speaks to his children in the privacy of home are not heard by the world, but, as in whispering galleries, they are clearly heard at the end, and by posterity.
Jean Paul
Ah! The seasons of love roll not backward but onward, downward forever.
Jean Paul
We learn our virtues from our friends who love us our faults from the enemy who hates us. We cannot easily discover our real character from a friend. He is a mirror, on which the warmth of our breath impedes the clearness of the reflection.
Jean Paul
Repetition is the mother of education.
Jean Paul
A sky full of silent suns.
Jean Paul
For sleep, riches and health to be truly enjoyed and gratefully appreciated, they must be interrupted so the person can see that not having them is not as good as having them.
Jean Paul
Jesus is the purest among the mighty, and the mightiest among the pure, who, with his pierced hand has raised empires from their foundations, turned the stream of history from its old channel, and still continues to rule and guide the ages
Jean Paul
Humanity is never so beautiful as when praying for forgiveness, or else forgiving another.
Jean Paul
What a father says to his children is not heard by the world, but it will be heard by posterity.
Jean Paul
Never part without loving words to think of during your absence. It may be that you will not meet again in this life.
Jean Paul
A timid person is frightened before a danger, a coward during the time, and a courageous person afterward.
Jean Paul
The conscience of children is formed by the influences that surround them their notions of good and evil are the result of the moral atmosphere they breathe.
Jean Paul
No heroine can create a hero through love of one, but she can give birth to one
Jean Paul
The look of a king is itself a deed.
Jean Paul
People will not bear it when advice is violently given, even if it is well founded. Hearts are flowers they remain open to the softly falling dew, but shut up in the violent downpour of rain.
Jean Paul
He thought of the mouldering child, which laid its withered thin arms around his soul, as if it were his own, and to whom Death had given as much as a god gave to Endymion, — sleep, eternal youth, and immortality.
Jean Paul
In women everything is heart, even the head.
Jean Paul
Courage consists not in blindly overlooking danger, but in seeing it, and conquering it.
Jean Paul
