“Art does not simply reveal God: it is one of the ways in which God reveals, and thus actualizes, himself.”
― Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Introductory Lectures on Aesthetics

“History is not the soil in which happiness grows. The periods of happiness in it are the blank pages of history.”
― Georg Wilhelm Hegel, The Philosophy of History

“The bud disappears in the bursting-forth of the blossom, and one might say that the former is refuted by the latter; similarly, when the fruit appears, the blossom is shown up in its turn as a false manifestation of the plant, and the fruit now emerges as the truth of it instead. These forms are not just distinguished from one another, they also supplant one another as mutually incompatible. Yet at the same time their fluid nature makes them moments of an organic unity in which they not only do not conflict, but in which each is as necessary as the other; and this mutual necessity alone constitutes the life of the whole.”
― Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Phenomenology of Spirit

“Genuine tragedies in the world are not conflicts between right and wrong. They are conflicts between two rights”
― Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
