Additional quotes by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

The greater part of all the mischief in the world arises from the fact that men do not sufficiently understand their own aims.

If you don't feel it, you'll never get it.

O'er all the hilltops
Is quiet now,
In all the treetops
Hearest thou
Hardly a breath;
The birds are asleep in the trees:
Wait; soon like these
Thou too shalt rest.
