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 GoetheThat we understand something perfectly, that we accomplish something better than anyone else around us, that is what matters.
Johann Wolfgang von GoetheEverything which is properly business we must keep carefully separate from life. Business requires earnestness and method; life must have a freed handling.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
