Famous quotes containing the words friedrich and/or prince:

    As high as mind stands above nature, so high does the state stand above physical life. Man must therefore venerate the state as a secular deity.... The march of God in the world, that is what the State is.
    —Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    The Prince but studies his companions
    Like a strange tongue, wherein, to gain the language,
    ‘Tis needful that the most immodest word
    Be looked upon and learnt, which once attained,
    Your highness knows, comes to no further use
    But to be known and hated.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
