Novalis Quotes

Only as far as a man is happily married to himself is he fit for married life and family life in general Picture Quote #1

The normal present connects the past and the future through limitation. Contiguity results, crystallization by means of solidification. There also exists, however, a spiritual present that identifies past and future through dissolution, and this mixture is the element, the atmosphere of the poet Picture Quote #1

I often feel, and ever more deeply I realize, that fate and character are the same conception Picture Quote #1

Every stage of education begins with childhood. That is why the most educated person on earth so much resembles a child Picture Quote #1

Life is the beginning of death. Life is for the sake of death. Death is at once the end and the beginning-at once separation and closer union of the self. Through death the reduction is complete Picture Quote #1

To become properly acquainted with a truth, we must first have disbelieved it, and disputed against it Picture Quote #1

The art of writing books is not yet invented. But it is at the point of being invented. Fragments of this nature are literary seeds. There may be many an infertile grain among them: nevertheless, if only some come up! Picture Quote #1

Humanity is the higher meaning of our planet, the nerve that connects this part of it with the upper world, the eye it raises to heaven Picture Quote #1

If the world is a precipitation of human nature, so to speak, then the divine world is a sublimation of the same. Both occur in one act. No precipitation without sublimation. What goes lost there in agility, is won here Picture Quote #1

The ideal of morality has no more dangerous rival than the ideal of highest strength, of most powerful life. It is the maximum of the savage Picture Quote #1

Friends, the soil is poor, we must sow seeds in plenty for us to garner even modest harvests Picture Quote #1

True anarchy is the generative element of religion. Out of the annihilation of all existing institutions she raises her glorious head, as the new foundress of the world Picture Quote #1

The seat of the soul is where the inner world and the outer world meet. Where they overlap, it is in every point of the overlap Picture Quote #1

Imagination places the future world for us either above or below or in reincarnation. We dream of travels throughout the universe: is not the universe within us? We do not know the depths of our spirit. The mysterious path leads within. In us, or nowhere, lies eternity with its worlds, the past and the future Picture Quote #1

All the events of our life are materials of which we can make what we will Picture Quote #1

Genius in general is poetic. Where genius has been active it has been poetically active. The truly moral person is a poet Picture Quote #1

One should, when overwhelmed by the shadow of a giant, move aside and see if the colossal shadow isn’t merely that of a pygmy blocking out the sun Picture Quote #1

Life must not be a novel that is given to us, but one that is made by us Picture Quote #1
