Men show their character in nothing more clearly than what they think laughable.
From Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The formation of one's character ought to be everyone's chief aim.
He who enjoys doing and enjoys what he has done is happy.
What life half gives a man, posterity gives entirely.
He is dead in this world who has no belief in another.
If you must tell me your opinions, tell me what you believe in. I have plenty of doubts of my own.
The Christian religion, though scattered and abroad will in the end gather itself together at the foot of the cross.
A creation of importance can only be produced when its author isolates himself, it is a child of solitude.
Unlike grown ups, children have little need to deceive themselves.
We know accurately only when we know little, with knowledge doubt increases.
