Quote by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832)

• Against criticism a man can neither protest nor defend himself; he must act in spite of it, and then it will gradually yield to him.

• The intelligent man finds almost everything ridiculous, the sensible man hardly anything.

• Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.

• Genius thinks it can do whatever it sees others doing, but is sure to repent of every ill-judged outlay.

• A man can stand anything except a succession of ordinary days.

• As soon as you trust yourself, you will know how to live.
