I hate everything that merely instructs me without augmenting or directly invigorating my activity.

There is no remedy but love for the great superiority of others

Beauty vanishes; virtue is lasting.

Everyone believes in his youth that the world really began with him, and that all merely exists for his sake.

Win for yourself that which your fathers have won.

True observers of nature, although they may think differently, will still agree that everything that is, everything that is observable as a phenomenon, can only exhibit itself in one of two ways. It is either a primal polarity that is able to unify, or it is a primal unity that is able to divide. The operation of nature consists of splitting the united or uniting the divided; this is the eternal movement of systole and diastole of the heartbeat, the inhalation and exhalation of the world in which we live, act, and exist.

It is ever true that he who does nothing for others, does nothing for himself." ~ Goethe
