"One is led astray alike by sympathy..." - Quote by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

“No wise combatant underestimates their antagonist.”

“A stated truth loses its grace, but a repeated error appears insipid and ridiculous.”

“All ages have said and repeated that one should strive to know one's self. This is a strange demand which no one up to now has measured up to and, strictly considered, no one should. With all their study and effort, people are directed to what is outside, to the world about them, and they are kept busy coming to know this and to master it to the extent that their purposes require. . . . How can you come to know yourself? Never by thinking, always by doing. Try to do your duty, and you'll know right away what you amount to. And what is your duty? Whatever the day calls for.”

“Were we not proud ourselves, we should not complain of the pride of others.”

“People always form images of who others are, and they can be inflated images.”

“A nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people.”

“The Ability to influence people without irritating them is the most profitable art known to man.”

“Good artists copy, great artists steal.”

“It's deep-rooted, the music of being young and dumb,It's never muted, in fact, it's much louder where I'm from.”
