"Love of truth shows itself in this,..." - Quote by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

“The whole art of living consists in giving up existence in order to exist.”

“Sowing is not as difficult as reaping.”

“How can we learn self-knowledge? Never by taking thought but rather by action. Try to do your duty and you'll soon discover what you're like.”

“Mathematics has the completely false reputation of yielding infallible conclusions. Its infallibility is nothing but identity. Two times two is not four, but it is just two times two, and that is what we call four for short. But four is nothing new at all. And thus it goes on and on in its conclusions, except that in the higher formulas the identity fades out of sight.”

“Ideals are dangerous things. Realities are better. They wound, but they're better.”

“No man should be angry with what is true.”

“I want to suffer so that I may love.”

“We should practice by showing one another love and helping one another. It is a mistake to pursue happiness and to seek to the avoid suffering by deceiving and humiliating other people. We must try to achieve happiness and eliminate suffering by being good-hearted and well-behaved.”

“If power doesn't mean that you have the opportunity to work with the people that you love , then you haven't really got any.”
