More quotes by Helmut Schmidt
The more direct decisions by all the people, all the more ungovernable is the country!
The rule of law does not have to win, it does not have to lose, but it has to exist!

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind.
To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
Not for the body, but for the heart; companion and company are needed.
Love seldom haunts the breast where learning lies,
And Venus sets ere Mercury can rise.
