Von

Famous quotes containing the word von:

    No two men see the world exactly alike, and different temperaments will apply in different ways a principle that they both acknowledge. The same man will, indeed, often see and judge the same things differently on different occasions: early convictions must give way to more mature ones. Nevertheless, may not the opinions that a man holds and expresses withstand all trials, if he only remains true to himself and others?
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    Nothing is more indispensable to true religiosity than a mediator that links us with divinity.
    Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)

    Music at its best is not in need of novelty; indeed, the older it is, the more one is accustomed to it, the stronger its effect.
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
