More quotes by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Method will teach you to win time.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
I could never have known so well how paltry men are, and how little they care for really high aims, if I had not tested them by my scientific researches. Thus I saw that most men only care for science so far as they get a living by it, and that they worship even error when it affords them a subsistence.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
As a man is, so is his God therefore God was so often an object of mockery. [Ger., Wie einer ist, so ist sein Gott, Darum ward Gott so oft zu Spott.]
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
What is hardest of all? That which seems most simple: to see with your eyes what is before your eyes.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The aim of living is life itself.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
If you have science and art, You also have religion But if you don't have them, You better have religion.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Life is the childhood of our immortality.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Life is but a preparation for what there is to come.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Energy will do anything that can be done in this world.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Legislators and revolutionaries who promise both equality and liberty are visionaries and charlatans.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Wer fremde Sprachen nicht kennt, weiss nichts von seiner eigenen.He who is ignorant of foreign languages, knows not his own.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The society of women is the element of good manners.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The most damaging prejudice consists of banning any kind of investigation of nature.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Mozart is a human incarnation of the divine force of creation.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Let your trouble be Light will follow dark Though the heaven falls You may hear the lark.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The angles even Draw strength from gazing on its glance, Though none its meaning fathom may The world's unwither'd countenance Is bright as at creation's day.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
People should talk less and draw more. Personally, I would like to renounce speech altogether and, like organic nature, communicate everything I have to say visually.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Tolerance should, strictly speaking, be only a passing mood it ought to lead to acknowledgment and appreciation. To tolerate a person is to affront him.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Truth is a torch, but a terrific one therefore we all try to reach it with closed eyes, lest we should be scorched.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
We all walk in mysteries. We are surrounded by an atmosphere about which we still know nothing at all.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
