Heinrich Heine Quotes

Oh, they loved dearly: their souls kissed, they kissed with their eyes, they were both but one single kiss Picture Quote #1

Genius: 1. to believe your own thought. To believe that what is true for you is ultimately true. 2. a sledgehammer. 3. the fruit of labour and thought. 4. soul. 5. the ability to put into effect what is in your mind. 6. something one can become Picture Quote #1

Music is a strange thing. I would almost say it is a miracle. For it stands halfway between thought and phenomenon, between spirit and matter Picture Quote #1

Life is the greatest of blessings and death the worst of evils... all great, powerful souls love life Picture Quote #1

High in the air rises the forest of oaks, high over the oaks soar the eagle, high over the eagle sweep the clouds, high over the clouds gleam the stars... high over the stars sweep the angels Picture Quote #1

Round my cradle shimmered the last moonbeams of the eighteenth century and the first morning rays of the nineteenth Picture Quote #1

I wept in my dreams. I dreamed you lay in the grave; I awoke, and the tears still poured down my cheeks. I wept in my dreams, I dreamed you had left me; I awoke and I went on weeping long and bitterly. I wept in my dreams, I dreamed you were still kind to me; I awoke, and still the flow of my tears streams on Picture Quote #1

I care little in the existence of a heaven or hell; self respect does not allow me to guide my acts with an eye toward heavenly salvation or hellish punishment. I pursue the good in life because it is beautiful and attracts me; and shun the bad because it is ugly and repulsive. All our acts should originate from the spring of unselfish love, whether there be a continuation after death or not Picture Quote #1

Society is a republic. When an individual endeavors to lift himself above his fellows, he is dragged down by the mass, either by means of ridicule or of calumny. No one shall be more virtuous or more intellectually gifted than others. Whoever, by the irresistable force of genius, rises above the common herd is certain to be ostracized by society, which will pursue him with such merciless derision and detraction that at last he will be compelled to retreat into the solitude of his thoughts Picture Quote #1

I live! Red life boils in my veins, earth yields beneath my feet, in the glow of love I embrace trees and statues, and they live in my embrace. Every woman is to me the gift of a world. I revel in the melody of her countenance, and with a single glance of my eye I can enjoy more than others with their every limb through all their lives Picture Quote #1

Be entirely tolerant or not at all; follow the good path or the evil one. To stand at the crossroads requires more strength than you possess Picture Quote #1

Here’s to matrimony, the high sea for which no compass has yet been invented! Picture Quote #1

With the rose the butterfly’s deep in love, a thousand times hovering round; but round himself, all tender like gold, the sun’s sweet ray is hovering found Picture Quote #1

Money bequeathed to my wife on the express condition that she remarry. I want at least one person to be truly bereaved by my death Picture Quote #1

The music at a wedding procession always reminds me of the music of soldiers going into battle Picture Quote #1

History shows that the majority of men who have done anything great have passed their youth in seclusion Picture Quote #1

Thy letter sent to prove me, inflicts no sense of wrong; no longer wilt thou love me, thy letter, though is long Picture Quote #1

And yonder sits a maiden, the fairest of the fair, with gold in her garment glittering, and she combs her golden hair Picture Quote #1

Mark this well, ye proud men of action! Ye are, after all, nothing but unconscious instruments of the men of thought Picture Quote #1

God has given us speech in order that we may say pleasant things to our friends, and tell bitter truths to our enemies Picture Quote #1

You should only attempt to borrow from those who have but few of this world’s goods, as their chests are not of iron, and they are, besides, anxious to appear wealthier than they really are Picture Quote #1

It is easy enough to forgive your enemies if you have not the means to harm them Picture Quote #1

I do not know that she was virtuous; but she was always ugly, and with a woman, that is half the battle Picture Quote #1

The swan in the pool is singing, and up and down doth he steer, and, singing gently ever, dips under the water clear Picture Quote #1

Literary history is the great morgue where all seek the dead ones whom they love, or, to whom they are related Picture Quote #1

In blissful dream, in silent night, there came to me, with magic might, with magic might, my own sweet love, into my little room above Picture Quote #1

The eyes of spring, so azure, are peeping from the ground; they are the darling violets, that I in nosegays bound Picture Quote #1

Reason exercises merely the function of preserving order, is, so to say, the police in the region of art. In life it is mostly a cold arithmetician summing up our follies Picture Quote #1

The arrow belongs not to the archer when it has once left the bow; the word no longer belongs to the speaker when it has once passed his lips, especially when it has been multiplied by the press Picture Quote #1

Oh, fair, oh sweet and holy as dew at morning tide, I gaze on thee, and yearnings, sad in my bosom hide Picture Quote #1
