Text Quotes
Every reader, if he has a strong mind, reads himself into the book, and amalgamates his thoughts with those of the author  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) Confronted by outstanding merit, there is no way of saving one’s ego except by love  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) I consider him of no account who esteems himself just as the popular breath may chance to raise him  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) The march of intellect, which licks all the world into shape, has even reached the devil  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) Viewed from the summit of reason, all life looks like a malignant disease and the world like a madhouse  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) The greatest thing in this world is not so much where we stand as in what direction we are moving  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) To be loved for what one is, that is the greatest exception.

I want to seize the highest and the lowest, to load its woe and bliss upon my breast, and thus expand my single self titanically and in the end go down with all the rest  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) The human race is a monotonous affair. Most people spend the greatest part of their time working in order to live, and what little freedom remains so fills them with fear that they seek out any and every means to be rid of it  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) The affairs of the world are no more than so much trickery, and a man who toils for money or honour or whatever else in deference to the wishes of others, rather than because his own desire or needs lead him to do so, will always be a fool  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) And I have again observed, my dear friend, in this trifling affair, that misunderstandings and neglect occasion more mischief in the world than even malice and wickedness. At all events, the two latter are of less frequent occurrence  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) The world is so empty if one thinks only of mountains, rivers and cities; but to know someone who thinks and feels with us, and who, though distant, is close to us in spirit, this makes the earth for us an inhabited garden  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) The greatest evil that can befall man is that he should come to think ill of himself  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) Oh happy he who still can hope in our day to breathe the truth while plunged in seas of error! What we don’t know is really what we need, and what we know is of no use to us whatever!  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) There is no past we can bring back by longing for it. There is only an eternal now that builds and creates out of the past something new and better  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) Too many parents make life hard for their children by trying, too zealously, to make it easy for them  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) No doubt you are right... there would be far less suffering amongst mankind if men... did not employ their imaginations so assiduously in recalling the memory of past sorrow, instead of bearing their present lot with equanimity  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) When she sees the leaves fall, they raise no other idea in her mind than that winter is approaching  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes) The world runs on from one folly to another; and the man who, solely from regard to the opinion of others, and without any wish or necessity of his own, toils after gold, honour, or any other phantom, is no better than a fool  (Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes)
