More from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
- Any time not spent in love is wasted.
- Daring ideas are like chessmen moved forward; they may be defeated, but they start a winning game.
- Many hammer all over the wall and believe that with each blow they hit the nail on the head.
- The world is so full of simpletons and madmen, that one need not seek them in a madhouse.
