More quotes by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Each one of us must carry within the proof of immortality, it cannot be given from outside of us. To be sure, everything in natureis change but behind the change there is something eternal.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Treat a person as they are, they will remain so. Treat a person the way that person can be and is capable of being and that person will become as he or she can be and should be.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Science and art belong to the whole world, and before them vanish the barriers of nationality.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
What is not started today is never finished tomorrow.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
If youth is a fault, it is one that one gets rid of soon enough.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
They teach in academies far too many things, and far too much that is useless.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Be above it! Make the world serve your purpose, but do not serve it.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Happiness is a ball after which we run wherever it rolls, and we push it with our feet when it stops.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Colors are the deeds/ and sufferings of light.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Why look for conspiracy when stupidity can explain so much
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The bad thing is that thinking about thought doesn't help at all one has to have it from nature so that the good ideas appear before us like free children of God calling to us: Here we are.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Against great advantages in another, there are no means of defending ourselves except love.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The summit charms us, the steps to it do not with the heights before our eyes, we like to linger in the plain. It is only a part of art that can be taught but the artist needs the whole. He who is only half instructed speaks much and is always wrong who knows it wholly is content with acting and speaks seldom or late.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
A person hears only what they understand.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The assault of our enemies is not part of our life it is only part of our experience we throw it off and guard ourselves against it as against frost, storm, rain, hail, or any other of the external evils which may be expected to happen.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The hardest thing is to see what's under your very eyes.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Plunge boldly into the thick of life, and seize it where you will, it is always interesting.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Passions are defects or virtues in the highest power.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
It is the color closest to light. In its utmost purity it always implies the nature of brightness and has a cheerful, serene, gently stimulating character. Hence, experience teaches us that yellow makes a thoroughly warm and comforting impression.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Not art and science only, but patience will be required for the work.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
