    Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
    “Medicine, and Law, and Philosophy -
    You've worked your way through every school,
    Even, God help you, Theology,
    And sweated at it like a fool.
    Why labour at it any more?
    You're no wiser now than you were before.
    You're Master of Arts, and Doctor too,
    And for ten years all you've been able to do
    Is lead your students a fearful dance
    Through a maze of error and ignorance.
    And all this misery goes to show
    There's nothing we can ever know.
    Oh yes you're brighter than all those relics,
    Professors and Doctors, scribblers and clerics,
    No doubts or scruples to trouble you,
    Defying hell, and the Devil too.
    But there's no joy in self-delusion;
    Your search for truth ends in confusion.
    Don't imagine your teaching will ever raise
    The minds of men or change their ways.
    And as for worldly wealth, you have none -
    What honour or glory have you won?
    A dog could stand this life no more.
    And so I've turned to magic lore;
    The spirit message of this art
    Some secret knowledge might impart.
    No longer shall I sweat to teach
    What always lay beyond my reach;
    I'll know what makes the world revolve,
    Its mysteries resolve,
    No more in empty words I'll deal -
    Creation's wellsprings I'll reveal!”
    Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Faust, and the Urfaust

    Kathryn Stockett
    “Wasn't that the point of the book? For women to realize, We are just two people. Not that much separates us. Not nearly as much as I'd thought.”
    Kathryn Stockett, The Help

  • #29
    J.K. Rowling
    “Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all those who live without love.”
