The rogue has everywhere the advantage.

Whoever strenuously endeavors, him we can rescue.

They should be ashamed of themselves, all these sober people!

Like the star that shines afar, Without haste and without rest, Let each one wheel with steady sway Round the task that rules the day, And do their best.

A talent can be cultivated in tranquility; a character only in the rushing stream of life.

Taste is only to be educated by contemplation, not of the tolerably good but of the truly excellent.

There is no patriotic art and no patriotic science.
