Stefan Zweig quotes

One must be convinced to convince, to have enthusiasm to stimulate the others.

Only the person who has experienced light and darkness, war and peace, rise and fall, only that person has truly experienced life.

In history, the moments during which reason and reconciliation prevail are short and fleeting.

Every wave, regardless of how high and forceful it crests, must eventually collapse within itself.

There is no sense to a sacrifice after you come to feel that it is a sacrifice.

It would be foolhardy to count on the conscience of the world.

No guilt is forgotten so long as the conscience still knows of it.

Beware of pity.

Life is futile unless it be directed towards a definite goal.

The soul is made of stuff so mysteriously elastic that a single event can make it big enough to contain the infinite.

Whatever a woman's reason may say, her feelings tell her the truth.

One can run away from anything but oneself.
