The Sayings Of Goethe.
13. I would call that man the happiest of all who can harmoniously interweave the closing, with the opening, period of his life.
14. Man is such a wayward perverse creature that he can not bear to have his own good forced upon him, though he has all along been acknowledging the sway of trainmels that have made for his evil.
15. To publish a true opinion courageously is like playing skilfully the first pawn in chess: that pawn may be killed at the outset, khit in the end the game will be won.
16. Truth is man's own; error, a thing of time.
17. He is greater than what he is held to be, who thinks himo self not greater than he really is.
18. No one looks at the rainbow whiclı lasts for a quarter of an hour.
19. It is the incapacity to give a right exposition of the indifferently expressed thoughts and ideas of the master minds of old that manifests the mental poverty of many a person of in tellectual pretensions.
20. There is hardly a more pernicious error for an intelligent youth than to a; prehend a lowering of his independence by his arowal of a truth already acknowledged by others.
