Seite 309 - Zum Strahlensitz der höchsten Schöne, Um andre Kronen buhlet nicht! Die Schwester, die euch hier verschwunden. Holt ihr im Schoß der Mutter ein; Was schöne Seelen schön empfunden, Muß trefflich und vollkommen sein.
Seite 330 - ... the smallest finished work of Goethe more than the most daring attempt of another. " It would make me unhappy," wrote Schiller, 2nd February, 1789, "to be much with Goethe; he never overflows even to his closest friends; nothing attaches him ; I believe that he is an egoist in a supreme degree. He possesses the talent of putting men under an obligation to him by small as well as great acts of courtesy; but he always manages to remain free himself. He makes himself known by acts of beneficence,...
Seite 267 - ... the Saale, to converse with him alone. Schiller had looked forward with ardent expectation to this meeting; it was over, and nothing had come of it ; he could not but feel somewhat mortified. " The high idea I had conceived of Goethe," he tells Korner, " is not in the slightest degree lessened by personal acquaintance ; but I doubt if we shall ever draw very close towards each other. Much that still interests me, that I still wish and hope for, he has outlived. He is so far ahead of me — not...
Seite 267 - ... shall ever draw very close towards each other. Much that still interests me, that I still wish and hope for, he has outlived. He is so far ahead of me — not so much in years as in experience of the world and self-development — that we cannot meet on the road. His whole life, from the very first, has run in a contrary direction to mine ; his world is not my world . . . But from so short an interview it is hard to draw a conclusion. Time will show.
Seite 330 - ... a calculated plan to obtain the highest gratification for his self-love. Men should not tolerate near them a being of this kind. Hence he is hateful to me, though I love his intellect with all my heart, and have an exalted idea of him. . . . He has aroused in me a most singular combination of hate and love, a feeling not unlike that which Brutus and Cassius must have had for Caesar. I could murder his spirit, and then love him from my heart.
Seite 131 - Reinhold's lectures commence in October; they include Kant's Philosophy and the Fine Arts. In comparison to Reinhold, you are an enemy of Kant's: he maintains that a hundred years hence Kant's reputation will be unbounded. But I must avow that he spoke of him with, great judgment, and has already induced me to commence read* Fourteen English miles.
Seite 18 - All that others can do is to öfter assistance ; and now let us ask who should offer that assistance ? I do not know what you will think of what I am about to say. It may be a foolish fancy of mine, and often those fancies which one thinks one's best are foolish. I confess, however, that I should like to see a great deal of this work done by the London Companies. I hope that opinion, does not shock any one. I...
Seite 10 - ... they have compensated for the many sad hours with which fate persecuted my youthful days— when I avow that it is to you that I am indebted for my present peace of mind, which made me revoke the curse upon my vocation as a poet which I had uttered in my affliction; when I tell you all this, I know that you will not repent of your friendly feelings towards me. If such beings, such dear souls do not remunerate the poet, he may look for recompense in vain. I had hoped, not without reason, to make...
Seite 132 - Kant's small Treatises in the ' Berlin Monthly Review ;' amongst which, his idea of a universal history ' gave me great satisfaction. That I shall read Kant, and perhaps study his works, is, I see, more than probable. Reinhold told me that Kant was about to publish a Treatise on Practical Reason, or on the Will; and afterwards a Treatise on Taste. Rejoice, then, beforehand.
Seite 16 - Leipzig rises before my dreams and expectations, like the rosy dawn behind the wooded hills.
