Goethe

Famous quotes containing the word goethe:

“Man ... knows only when he is satisfied and when he suffers, and only his sufferings and his satisfactions instruct him concerning himself, teach him what to seek and what to avoid. For the rest, man is a confused creature; he knows not whence he comes or whither he goes, he knows little of the world, and above all, he knows little of himself.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

“It is day still, you better get busy!
Night will intrude when no one can be active.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

“And as long as this is not part of you,
This die and become,
You are but a somber guest
On this dark earth.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
