"The world remains ever the same...." - Quote by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

“As soon as you are in a social setting, you better take away the key to the lock of your heart and pocket it; those who leave thekey in the lock are fools.”

“Whatever we think out, whatever we take in hand to do, should be perfectly and finally finished, that the world, if it must alter, will only have to spoil it; we have then nothing to do but unite the severed, to recollect and restore the dismembered.”

“For I have been a man, and that means to have been a fighter.”

“Morality is temporary, wisdom is permanent.”

“What happens to you here is forever.”

“The defects and faults of the mind are like wounds in the body; after all imaginable care has been taken to heal them up, still there will be a scar left behind, and they are in continual danger of breaking the skin and bursting out again.”

“Even the most sublime ideas sound ridiculous if heard too often. Be the change that you want to see in the world.”

“Pick up any history book, and I suggest you begin with studying the 20th century, and you will find that a large part of the history of our species has all the characteristics we would normally associate with a nightmare or an insane hallucination.”

“This goodly frame, the earth, seems to me a sterile promontory.”
