Nothing is worth more than this day. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

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

"The greatest thing in this world is not so much where we stand as in what direction we are moving."

"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."

"Love can do much, but duty more."

"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."
