Age does not make us childish, as some say; it finds us true... - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

"This is the true measure of love: when we believe that we alone can love, that no one could ever have loved so before us, and that no one will ever love in the same way after us."

"If you've never eaten while crying you don t know what life tastes like."

"Ohne Hast, aber ohne Rast. - Without haste, but without rest."

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

"The world is so empty if one thinks only of mountains, rivers & cities; but to know someone who thinks & feels with us, & who, though distant, is close to us in spirit, this makes the earth for us an inhabited garden."
