JOHANN WOLFGANG VON GOETHE: DEN ORIGINALEN

Goethe111

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
(1749-1832)

Den Originalen

Ein Quidam sagt: »Ich bin von keiner Schule;
Kein Meister lebt, mit dem ich buhle;
Auch bin ich weit davon entfernt,
Daß ich von Toten was gelernt.«
Das heißt, wenn ich ihn recht verstand:
»Ich bin ein Narr auf eigne Hand.«
