Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
A purpose you impart is no longer your own.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Nature understands no jesting. She is always true, always serious, always severe. She is always right, and the errors are always those of man.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Art is a mediator of the unspeakable.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
