"We are our own aptest deceiver...." - Quote by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

“Judge a man's character by what he finds ridiculous.”

“Error is to truth as sleep is to waking. I have observed that one turns, as if refreshed, from error back to truth.”

“I love those who yearn for the impossible.”

“Humans are creatures, who spent their lifes trying to convince themselves, that their existence is not absurd”

“We are never, never so much in danger of being proud as when we think we are humble.”

“It is very often nothing but our own vanity that deceives us.”

“It is just like man's vanity and impertinence to call an animal dumb because it is dumb to his dull perceptions.”

“What is really important in Man is the part of him that we do not understand. Of much of it we are not even conscious, just as we are not normally conscious of keeping up our circulation by our heart-pump, though if we neglect it we die.”

“Love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”
