Quotes by Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel
- What is called good society is usually nothing but a mosaic of polished caricatures.
- Where there is politics or economics, there is no morality.
- Wit as an instrument of revenge is as infamous as art is as a means of sensual titillation.
- Wit is the appearance, the external flash of imagination. Thus its divinity, and the witty character of mysticism.
- Women are treated as unjustly in poetry as in life. The feminine ones are not idealistic, and the idealistic not feminine.
- Women do not have as great a need for poetry because their own essence is poetry.
