What Matters In Art Is Not Thinking

Patriotism Corrupts History.

Beauty Is At Once The Ultimate Principle And The Highest Aim Of Art.

What Is Uttered From The Heart Alone, Will Win The Hearts Of Others To Your Own.

What A Mighty Spirit In A Narrow Bosom. [ger., Welch' Hoher Geist In Einer Engen Brust.]
