I have so much in me, and the feeling for her absorbs it all; I have so much, and without her it all comes to nothing.

Quote from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Faust, Part One
Wild dreams torment me as I lie. And though a god lives in my heart, though all my power waken at his word, though he can move my every inmost part – yet nothing in the outer world is stirred. thus by existence tortured and oppressed I crave for death, I long for rest.

Quote from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Faust: First Part
You canât, if you canât feel it, if it neverRises from the soul, and swaysThe heart of every single hearer,With deepest power, in simple ways.Youâll sit forever, gluing things together,Cooking up a stew from otherâs scraps,Blowing on a miserable fire,Made from your heap of dying ash.Let apes and children praise your art,If their admirationâs to your taste,But youâll never speak from heart to heart,Unless it rises up from your heartâs space.
