Nature! We are enveloped and embraced by her, incapable of emerging from her and incapable of entering her more deeply. Unbidden and unwarned, she receives us into the circuits of her dance, drifting onward with us herself, until we grow tired and drop from her arms.
Johann Wolfgang von GoetheMan can find no better retreat from the world than art, and man can find no stronger link with the world than art.
Johann Wolfgang von GoetheTo tremble before anticipated evils is to bemoan what thou hast never lost.
