Anne Sofie Von

Famous quotes containing the words anne and/or von:

    You can’t write about people out of textbooks, and you can’t use jargon. You have to speak clearly and simply and purely in a language that a six-year-old child can understand; and yet have the meanings and the overtones of language, and the implications, that appeal to the highest intelligence.
    —Katherine Anne Porter (1890–1980)

    The bad thing is that thinking about thought doesn’t help at all; one has to have it from nature so that the good ideas appear before us like free children of God calling to us: Here we are.
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
