Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
It is a maxim of wise government to treat people not as they should be but as they actually are.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Let everyone sweep in front of his own door, and the whole world will be clean.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Hold your powers together for something good and let everything go that is for you without result and is not suited to you.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
If nature is your teacher, your soul will awaken.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
If you call a thing bad you do little, if you call a thing good you do much
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
