Man knows himself only insofar as he knows the world, becoming aware of it if only within himself, and of himself self only within it. Each new subject, well observed, opens up within us a new organ of thought.
Johann Wolfgang von GoetheBy nature we have no defect that could not become a strength, no strength that could not become a defect.
Johann Wolfgang von GoetheEvery man bears something within him that, if it were publicly announced, would excite feelings of aversion.
