Rudolf Steiner

For human beings, love is the most important fruit of experience in the sense world.
Rudolf Steiner

The sensory world is the school, without which the human being would never come to the spirit.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
If humanity is to live in the future in a socially right way, humanity must educate its children in a socially right way.
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
Only when I follow my love for my objective is it I myself who act.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
The smallest thing in its rightful place can lead to the highest goals.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Ultimately all knowing, from the highest to the lowest, is the result of experience it arises on the way of experiences.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Anthroposophy is a path of knowledge, to guide the spiritual in the human being to the spiritual in the universe... Anthroposophists are those who experience, as an essential need of life, certain questions on the nature of the human being and the universe, just as one experiences hunger and thirst.
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
When the past has taught us that we have more within us than we have ever used, our prayer is a cry to the divine to come to us and fill us with its power.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
May my soul bloom in love for all existence.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
When you try to do one step forward to attain knowledge about the hidden truths, then do the same time three steps forward to perfect your character.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
The student of mathematics must get rid of all arbitrary thinking and follow purely the demands of thought. In thinking in this way, the laws of the spiritual world flow into him. This regulated thinking leads to the most spiritual truths.
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.
