Faust




“A man sees in the world what he carries in his heart.” 



 




“Whatever is the lot of humankind
I want to taste within my deepest self.
I want to seize the highest and the lowest,
to load its woe and bliss upon my breast,
and thus expand my single self titanically
and in the end go down with all the rest.”




 
“Everything transitory is but an image.” 








“Words are mere sound and smoke, dimming the heavenly light.”






“What I possess, seems far away to me, and what is gone becomes reality.”

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
