Wilhelm Von Humboldt Quotes

In Every Remodelling Of The Present, The Existing Condition Of Things Must Be Supplanted By A New One. Now Every Variety Of Circumstances In Which Men Find Themselves, Every Object Which Surrounds Them, Communicates A Definite Form And Impress To Their Internal Nature. This Form Is Not Such That It Can Change And Adapt Itself To Any Other A Man May Choose To Receive; And The End Is Foiled, While The Power Is Destroyed, When We Attempt To Impose Upon That Which Is Already Stamped In The Soul A Form Which Disagrees With It.
