Ludwig Tieck Quotes

Consider too, how deep the abyss between life and death; across this, my power can build a bridge, but it can never fill up the frightful chasm.

Ludwig Tieck

How may I hate that which I love with such intensity of passion? How should I abhor that for which my every drop of blood is boiling?

Ludwig Tieck
