"All professional men are handicapped by not..." - Quote by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

“Duty is the demand of the hour.”

“Begin by instructing yourself, then you will receive instruction from others.”

“The rabble also vent their rage in words.[Ger., Es macht das Volk sich auch mit Worten Lust.]”

“It is the working man who is the happy man. It is the idle man who is the miserable man.”

“I do regard spinning and weaving as a necessary part of any national system of education.”

“I have retired, but if there's anything that would kill me it is to wake up in the morning not knowing what to do.”

“If we do not like our work, and do not try to get happiness out of it, we are a menace to our profession as well as to ourselves.”

“I do my profession, my job, I give me all for my club...the rest doesn't matter to me. I don't care what happens on the outside.”

“I've always considered writing the most hateful kind of work. I suspect it's a bit like fucking - which is fun only for amateurs. Old whores don't do much giggling.”
