The foolish race of mankind are swarming below in the night; they shriek and rage and quarrel -- and all of them are right.
Heinrich Heine
While we are indifferent to our good qualities, we keep on deceiving ourselves in regard to our faults, until we come to look on them as virtues.
Heinrich Heine
In politics, as in life, we must above all things wish only for the attainable.
Heinrich Heine
It is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves.
