A talent is formed in stillness, a character in the world's torrent. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Additional quotes by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Nothing venture, nothing gain. Who ne'er his bread in sorrow ate,
Who ne'er the mournful midnight hours
Weeping upon his bed has sate,
He knows you not, ye Heavenly Powers.
