Wolfgang Amadeus Griller

Famous quotes containing the words wolfgang and/or amadeus:

    People can only live with their equals, and not even with them; for in the long run they cannot tolerate that someone is their equal.
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    Everything here below beneath the sun is subject to continual change; and perhaps there is nothing which can be called more inconstant than opinion, which turns round in an everlasting circle like the wheel of fortune. He who reaps praise today is overwhelmed with biting censure tomorrow; today we trample under foot the man who tomorrow will be raised far above us.
    —E.T.A.W. (Ernst Theodor Amadeus Wilhelm)
