“Youth is intoxication without wine.”

About Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

1749 – 1832

German poet and polymath, author of "Faust".

“When we lack ourselves, we lack everything.”

“But what is your duty? What the day demands.”

“There is strong shadow where there is much light.”

“Youth comes but once in a lifetime.”

“Ah! happy years! once more who would not be a boy!”

“No man loves life like him that's growing old.”

“I wish you all the joy that you can wish.”

“No one is so old that he does not think he could live another year.”

“At times it seems to me that I am living my life backwards, and that at the approach of old age my real youth will begin.”
