Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Quotes
The senses do not deceive us
The senses do not deceive us, but the judgment does.
~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
No one has ever learned
No one has ever learned fully to know themselves.
~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
He is the happiest
He is the happiest, be he king or peasant, who finds peace in his home.
~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Thinking and Doing
Thinking and doing, doing and thinking – these are the sum of all wisdom. Both must move ever onward in life, to and fro, like breathing in and breathing out. Whoever makes it a rule to test action by thought, thought by action, cannot falter, and if he does, will soon find his way back to the right road.
~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
