Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Literature is a fragment of a fragment. Of all that ever happened, or has been said, but a fraction has been written and of this but little is extant.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Sowing is not as difficult as reaping.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
What is not started today is never finished tomorrow.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Every second is of infinite value.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Hell begins the day that God grants you the vision to see all that you could have done, should have done, and would have done, but did not do.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
For a brave man deserves a well-endowed girl.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
