Wilhelm Der Grosse

Famous quotes containing the words wilhelm and/or der:

    Whatever does not spring from a man’s free choice, or is only the result of instruction and guidance, does not enter into his very being, but still remains alien to his true nature; he does not perform it with truly human energies, but merely with mechanical exactness.
    —Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt (1767–1835)

    Under the lindens on the heather,
    There was our double resting-place.
