Famous quotes containing the word wilhelm:

    “Freedom is but the possibility of a various and indefinite activity; while government, or the exercise of dominion, is a single, yet real activity. The longing for freedom, therefore, is at first only too frequently suggested by the deep-felt consciousness of its absence.”
    —Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt (1767–1835)
