Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
I do not now begin, - I still adore Her whom I early cherish'd in my breast Then once again with prudence dispossess'd, And to whose heart I'm driven back once more. The love of Petrarch, that all-glorious love, Was unrequited, and, alas, full sad.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
We are not all equal, nor can we be so.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
A purpose you impart is no longer your own.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Beware of her fair hair, for she excels All women in the magic of her locks And when she winds them round a young man's neck, She will not ever set him free again.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
