Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

The artist alone sees spirits. But after he has told of their appearing to him, everybody sees them.

What is uttered from the heart alone, Will win the hearts of others to your own.

This is the highest wisdom that I own freedom and life are earned by those alone who conquer them each day anew.

The soul that sees beauty may sometimes walk alone.

The credit of advancing science has always been due to individuals and never to the age.

Age merely shows what children we remain.

Error is acceptable as long as we are young but one must not drag it along into old age.
