"The field of experience is the whole..." - Quote by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

“Artists have a double relationship towards nature: they are her master and her slave at the same time. They are her slave in so far as they must work with means of this world so as to be understood; her master in so far as they subject these means to their higher goals and make them subservient to them.”

“Do not, I beg you, look for anything behind phenomena. They are themselves their own lesson.”

“Self-knowledge comes from knowing other men.”

“We can never be certain of our courage until we have faced danger.”

“I took one look and fell, hook and tumble.”

“When invitation come, then I inquire just to see new place or seeing just the one sort of family, then not much interest.”

“Some books leave us free and some books make us free.”

“You cannot speak that which you do not know. You cannot share that which you do not feel. You cannot translate that which you do not have. And you cannot give that which you do not possess. To give it and to share it, and for it to be effective, you first need to have it. Good communication starts with good preparation.”

“Knowledge of the investment is most profitable”
