The science of the future will be based on sympathetic vibrations.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
If man wants to obtain knowledge of the greatness and happiness of these worlds, then is nothing else possible than that he also will be introduced to the dangerous, with the fearfulness that they contain. One is not possible without the other.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
A real artist may create his picture in a lonely desert... gods look over his shoulder he creates in their company. What does he care whether or not anybody admires his picture?
Rudolf Steiner
Image
The stars spoke once to man. It is world destiny That they are silent now. To be aware of the silence Can become pain for earthly man. But in the deepening silence There grows and ripens What man speaks to the stars.

Thoughts that deny reincarnation are transformed in the next life into an inner unreality, an inner emptiness of life this inner unreality and emptiness are experienced as torment, as disharmony.

The sun with loving light makes bright for me each day, the soul with spirit power gives strength unto my limbs. In sunlight shining clear I revere, Oh God, the strength of humankind, which thou has planted in my soul, that I may with all my might, may love to work and learn. From thee stream light and strength to thee rise love and thanks.

Our highest endeavor must be to develop free human beings who are able of themselves to impart purpose and direction to their lives. The need for imagination, a sense of truth, and a feeling of responsibility—these three forces are the very nerve of education.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
We find the instrument for the Knowledge of God in ourselves But we find God everywhere.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Live through deeds of love, and let others live with tolerance for their unique intentions.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
It is the death of present art when it returns again and again to the model. Use of the model is only an intermediate stage in artistic development. Create out of a living spirituality to overcome everything naturalistic.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Our task is to harvest from the mortal world fruits for the immortal.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Geometry is knowledge that appears to be produced by human beings, yet whose meaning is totally independent of them.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
The history of our spiritual life is a continuing search for the unity between ourselves and the world.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
The higher worlds are around us. These worlds are not only heavenly worlds, not only worlds of happiness, though paradise and happiness are in them, but they are also worlds that could be terrible for the people, by dangerous facts and creatures.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Love is higher than opinion. If people love one another the most varied opinions can be reconciled - thus one of the most important tasks for humankind today and in the future is that we should learn to live together and understand one another. If this human fellowship is not achieved, all talk of development is empty.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
One can only understand history and all of social life, including today’s social life, if one pays attention to people’s racial characteristics. And one can only understand all that is spiritual in the correct sense if one first examines how this spiritual element operates within people precisely through the color of their skin.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Reverence, enthusiasm, and a sense of guardianship, these three are actually the panacea, the magical remedy, in the soul of the educator and teacher.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Seek the truly practical life, but seek it in such a way that it does not blind you to the spirit working in it. Seek the spirit, but seek it not out of spiritual greed, but so that you may apply it in the genuinely practical life.
Rudolf Steiner
