"People are always talking about originality; but..." - Quote by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

“Water its living strength first shows, When obstacles its course oppose.”

“What right those who govern have to govern they don't question, they just govern. Whether the people have a right to depose them that doesn't concern them. All they are concerned with is that the people will not be tempted to depose them.”

“There is nothing in the world more pitiable than an irresolute man, oscillating between two feelings, who would willingly unite the two and who does not perceive that nothing can unite them”

“People with new ideas, people with the faintest capacity for saying something new, are extremely few in number, extraordinarily so, in fact.”

“The woman who follows the crowd will usually believe that I said this.”

“If all you do is follow the herd, you'll just be stepping in poop all day”

“There are two levers for moving men - interest and fear.”

“Attitude is greatly shaped by influence and association.”

“Thoughts are living things - they travel far.”
