Additional quotes by Heinrich Heine

The real madness probably is not another thing that the wisdom itself that, tired of discovering the shames of the world, has taken the intelligent resolution to become mad

Whatever tears one may shed, in the end one always blows one's nose.

Sie war liebenswürdig und er liebte sie. / Er aber war nicht liebenswürdig / und sie liebte ihn nicht. (Altes Stück)

They loved each other, but neither Would venture to speak thereof; They glared at each other like enemies And wanted to die of love. - Heinrich Heine
