Quotes from Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach

Si noe som er innlysende,si det for første gang, og du blir udødelig (Norwegian)

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

Happy slaves are the bitterest enemies of freedom.

There are very few honest friends--the demand is not particularly great.

We are so vain that we even care for the opinion of those we don't care for.

He who believes in freedom of the will has never loved and never hated

With our parents we bury our past, with our children our future.

In youth we learn; in age we understand.
