Ivo Andric Quotes

The Desire For Sudden Change And The Thought Of Their Realization By Force Often Appears Among Men Like A Disease And Gains Ground Mainly In Young Brains; Only These Brains Do Not Think As They Should, Do Not Amount To Anything In The End And The Heads That Think Thus Do Not Remain Long On Their Shoulders. For It Is Not Human Desires That Dispose And Administer The Things Of This World. Desire Is Like A Wind, It Sifts The Dust From One Place To Another, Sometimes Darkens The Whole Horizon, But In The End Calms Down And Leaves The Old And Eternal Picture Of The World. Lasting Deeds Are Realized On This Earth Only By God's Will, And Man Is Only His Humble And Blind Tool.
