The shudder of awe is humanity's highest faculty, Even though this world is forever altering its values.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Energy will do anything that can be done in this world.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Then to the depths! - I could as well say height: It's all the same.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The rabble also vent their rage in words. [Ger., Es macht das Volk sich auch mit Worten Lust.]
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Nature reacts not only to physical disease, but also to moral weakness when the danger increases she gives us greater courage
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
To rule is easy, to govern difficult.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
You can easily judge the character of a man by how he treats those who can do nothing for him.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
I look upon all four Gospels as thoroughly genuine, for there shines forth from them the reflected splendor of a sublimity proceeding from Jesus Christ.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
A man is really alive only when he delights in the good-will of others.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
