Quotation from Goethe
Hi, I need to find this quotation from Goethe in English, but I don't know which work it comes from. I'm posting the question IT>DE in the hope that some German colleague recognises it and can tell me where it's from so that I can look it up in English.
TIA

Comment: "Thanks a lot. I've found the reference Maximen und Reflexionen (Maxims and Reflections) 829 with the help of the German phrase, but unfortunately not the English translation. I'll try asking the DE>EN community :-)
