Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

What is important in life is life, and not the result of life.

Character develops itself in the stream of life.

All theory, dear friend, is gray, but the golden tree of life springs ever green.

Love and desire are the spirit's wings to great deeds.

I love those who yearn for the impossible.

Nothing is worth more than this day.

Every day we should hear at least one little song, read one good poem, see one exquisite picture, and, if possible, speak a few sensible words.

Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do.
