My favourite quotes

-He who has done his best for his own time has lived for all times.
-Every true genius is bound to be naive.

– Friedrich Schiller

Trust no one in whom the desire to punish is strong.

– Fyodor Dostoevsky

If you wish to forget anything on the spot, make a note that this thing is to be remembered.

– Edgar Allan Poe

In this world, which is so plainly the antechamber of another, there are no happy men. The true division of humanity is between those who live in light and those who live in darkness. Our aim must be to diminish the number of the latter and increase the number of the former. That is why we demand education and knowledge.

– Victor Hugo

Truth is what stands the test of experience.

– Albert Einstein

I ask you to judge me by the enemies I have made.

– Franklin Delano Roosevelt

All the knowledge I possess everyone else can acquire, but my heart is all my own.

– Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness.

– Friedrich Nietzsche
