fromHeinrich

Heine(1797-1856) born Dec 13

German poet, critic; His poetry has been used in

more than 3000 musical works; wrote Book of Songs, 1827.

In these times we fight for ideas, and

newspapers are our

fortresses.

When words leave off,

music begins.

Mark this well, you proud men of action! you are, after all, nothing but unconscious

instruments of the men of thought.

Like a great poet, Nature knows how to produce the

greatest effects with

the most limited means.

The weather-cock on the

church spire, though made of

iron, would soon

be broken by the

storm-wind if it… did not

under- stand the noble

art of turning to every wind.
