Famous quotes containing the words heinrich heine, heine and/or prize:

    The foolish race of mankind
    Are swarming below in the night;
    They shriek and rage and quarrel—
    And all of them are right.
    Heinrich Heine (1797–1856)

    Whatever tears one may shed, in the end one always blows one’s nose.
    —Heinrich Heine (1797–1856)

    In the corrupted currents of this world
    Offence’s gilded hand may shove by justice,
    And oft ‘tis seen the wicked prize itself
    Buys out the law; but ‘tis not so above:
    There is no shuffling.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
