Italian to German Art/Literary Poetry & Literature 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
Sarah
