If we cannot live so as to be happy, let us so live as to deserve happiness.
Johann Gottlieb Fichte
By mere burial man arrives not at bliss; and in the future life, throughout its whole infinite range, they will seek for happiness as vainly as they sought it here, who seek it in aught else than that which so closely surrounds them here - the Infinite.
Johann Gottlieb Fichte

Johann Gottlieb Fichte
God is not the mere dead conception to which we have thus given utterance, but he is in himself pure Life.
