More quotes by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
In the colored reflection we have Life.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
For the nature of women is closely allied to art
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Everyone holds his fortune in his own hands, like a sculptor the raw material he will fashion into a figure. But it's the same with that type of artistic activity as with all others: We are merely born with the capability to do it. The Skill to mold the material into what we want must be learned and attentively cultivated.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Gray is the color of all theory
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
In art, the best is good enough.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Sowing is not as difficult as reaping.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Where a man has a passion for meditating without the capacity of thinking, a particular idea fixes itself fast, and soon creates a mental disease.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The most happy man is he who knows how to bring into relation the end and beginning of his life.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The world remains ever the same.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Woe to falsehood! it affords no relief to the breast, like truth it gives us no comfort, pains him who forges it, and like an arrow directed by a god flies back and wounds the archer.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
When toward the Devil's Hose we tread, Woman's a thousand steps behind. [Ger., Denn geht es zu des Bosen Haus Das Weib hat tausend Schritt voraus.]
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Are we not also married to conscience which we would love to get rid of often enough since it is more bothersome than a man or a woman ever could become?
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Sceptics are yet the most credulous.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
God help us -- for art is long, and life so short.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
A purpose you impart is no longer your own.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Aptitudes are assumed, they should become accomplishments. That is the purpose of all education.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
One cannot always be a hero, but one can always be a man.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
