More quotes by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Do not hurry do not rest.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Ingratitude is always a kind of weakness. I have never known men of ability to be ungrateful.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Energy will do anything that can be done in the world and no talents, no circumstances, no opportunities will make a two-legged animal a man without it.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
So dear night the half of life is, And the fairest half indeed.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Since I have heard often enough that everyone in the end has his own religion, nothing seemed more natural to me than to fashion my own.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Stones are mute teachers they silence the observer, and the most valuable lesson we learn from them we cannot communicate.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Age does not make us childish, as some say it finds us true children.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The highest goal that man can achieve is amazement.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The passions are like those demons with which Afrasahiab sailed down the Orus. Our only safety consists in keeping them asleep. If they we are lost.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The highest cannot be spoken it can only be acted.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
It is better to be deceived by one's friends than to deceive them.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Nothing is good for a nation but that which arises from its own core and its own general wants, without apish imitation of another.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The world is so great and rich, and life so full of variety, that you can never lack occasions for poems.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Correction does much, but encouragement does more. Encouragement after censure is as the sun after a shower.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
If a good person does you wrong, act as though you had not noticed it. If we practice and eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, soon the wholeworld will be blind and toothless.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Man knows himself only insofar as he knows the world, becoming aware of it if only within himself, and of himself self only within it. Each new subject, well observed, opens up within us a new organ of thought.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
If you lay duties upon people and give them no rights, you must pay them well.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
In art, the best is good enough.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Judge a man's character by what he finds ridiculous.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Try novelties for salesman's bait, For novelty wins everyone.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
