“It’s all messy.”

“We do not have to visit a madhouse to find disordered minds.”

“We do not have to visit a madhouse to find disordered minds; our planet is the mental institution of the universe.”

— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

 

Goethe_(Stieler_1828)

“Are you in earnest? Seize this very minute!”

“Lose the day loitering, ’twill be the same story
To-morrow, and the next more dilatory,
For indecision brings its own delays,
And days are lost lamenting o’er lost days.
Are you in earnest? Seize this very minute!
What you can do, or think you can, begin it!
Only engage, and then the mind grows heated;
Begin it, and the work will be completed.”

― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
