Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Quotes

"The greatest evil that can befall man is that he should come to think ill of himself ""We always have time enough, if we will but use it aright ""The greatest thing in this world is not so much where we stand as in what direction we are moving ""There is nothing insignificant in the world. It all depends on the point of view ""We are on earth to help others; what the others are here for, I don't know ""Enjoy when you can, and endure when you must ""Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them to become what they are capable of being ""To live in a great idea means to treat the impossible as though it were possible ""Difficulties increase the nearer we get to the goal ""Nature knows no pause in progress and development, and attaches her curse on all inaction ""I can promise to be sincere, but not to be impartial""Devote each day to the object then in time and every evening will find something to commend""None are so hopelessly enslaved as those who falsely believe they are free""When ideas fail, words come in handy""This is the highest wisdom that I own; freedom and life are earned by those alone who conquer them each day anew""The best government is that which teaches us to govern ourselves ""One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and, if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words ""If you’ve never eaten while crying you don t know what life tastes like ""Every day we should hear at least one little song, read one good poem, see one exquisite picture, and, if possible, speak a few sensible words ""There is nothing more frightful than ignorance in action "
