More From Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

Most of the nations that have serious gardening cultures have, or had, empires. you can't have this luxury of pleasure without somebody paying for it. this is nice to know. it's nice to know that when you sit down to enjoy a plate of strawberries, somebody got paid very little so that you could have your strawberries. it doesn't mean the strawberries will taste different, but it's nice to enjoy things less than we do. we enjoy things far too much, and it leads to incredible pain and suffering.
Pain Nice Mean
Taste governs every free - as opposed to rote - human response. nothing is more decisive. there is taste in people, visual taste, taste in emotion - and there is taste in acts, taste in morality. intelligence, as well, is really a kind of taste: taste in ideas.

The discovery of the good taste of bad taste can be very liberating. the man who insists on high and serious pleasures is depriving himself of pleasure; he continually restricts what he can enjoy; in the constant exercise of his good taste he will eventually price himself out of the market, so to speak. here camp taste supervenes upon good taste as a daring and witty hedonism. it makes the man of good taste cheerful, where before he ran the risk of being chronically frustrated. it is good for the digestion.

There was a tale he had read once, long ago, as a small boy: the story of a traveler who had slipped down a cliff, with man-eating tigers above him and a lethal fall below him, who managed to stop his fall halfway down the side of the cliff, holding on for dear life. there was a clump of strawberries beside him, and certain death above him and below. what should he do? went the question. and the reply was, eat the strawberries. the story had never made sense to him as a boy. it did now.

That's why it's always worth having a few philosophers around the place. one minute it's all is truth beauty and is beauty truth, and does a falling tree in the forest make a sound if there's no one there to hear it, and then just when you think they're going to start dribbling one of 'em says, incidentally, putting a thirty-foot parabolic reflector on a high place to shoot the rays of the sun at an enemy's ships would be a very interesting demonstration of optical principles.

If one is willing to do a thing he is afraid to do, he does not have to ... face a situation fearlessly, and if there is no situation to face; it falls away of its own weight.

I used to dream i used to glance beyond the stars now i don't know where we are although i know we've drifted far what about yesterday what about the seas the heavens are falling down i can't even breathe what about the bleeding earth can't we feel its wounds what about nature's worth? it's our planet's womb.
