What I possess, seems far away to me, and what is gone becomes reality.

It is ever true that he who does nothing for others, does nothing for himself." ~ Goethe

It is in self-limitation that a master first shows himself.

Normally, the sciences distance themselves from life and the return to it via a detour.

He who possesses art and science has religion; he who does not possess them, needs religion.

Thank God when he oppresses you, and again when he releases you.

He who moves not forward, goes backward.
