I am a part of the part that at first was all, part of the darkness that gave birth to the light, that supercilious light which now disputes with Mother Night her ancient rank and space, and yet cannot succeed; no matter how it struggles, it sticks to matter and can't get free. Light flows from substance, makes it beautiful.
Johann Wolfgang von GoetheHow many years must a man do nothing, before he can at all know what is to be done and how to do it!
Johann Wolfgang von GoetheRash, inexperienced youth holds itself a chosen instrument, and allows itself unbounded license.
