Wherever they burn books they will also, in the end, burn human beings.

Heinrich Heine

Perfumes are the feelings of flowers. And as the human heart feels most powerful emotions in the night, when it believes itself to be alone and unperceived, so also do the flowers, soft-minded, yet ashamed, appear to await for concealing darkness, that they may give themselves wholly up to their feelings, and breathe them out in sweet odors.

Heinrich Heine

Where they have burned books, they will end in burning human beings.
