There Is A Courtesy Of The Heart;

The Poet Should Seize The Particular, And He Should, If There Be Anything Sound In It, Thus Represent The Universal.

It Is Much Easier To Meet With Error Than To Find Truth; Error Is On The Surface, And Can Be More Easily Met With; Truth Is Hid In Great Depths, The Way To Seek Does Not Appear To All The World.

There Is Nothing More Fearful Than Imagination Without Taste. [ger., Es Ist Nichts Furchterlicher Als Einbildungskraft Ohne Geschmack.]

If You Want To Understand Poetry, You Have To Go To Its Origin, If You Want To Understand The Poet, You Have To Go To The Poet's Home.

The Highest Happiness, The Purest Joys Of Life, Wear Out At Last.
