Let mental culture go on advancing, let the natural sciences... - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

"Character develops itself in the stream of life."

"There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One of these is roots, the other, wings."

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

"He who cannot draw on three thousand years is living from hand to mouth."

"The mediator of the inexpressible is the work of art."
