A Quote by Hugo von Hofmannsthal

We have fewer friends than we imagine, but more than we know. — © Hugo von Hofmannsthal
We have fewer friends than we imagine, but more than we know.
You are more beautiful than you realize, stronger than you know, more powerful than you could imagine.
A coquette is a young lady of more beauty than sense, more accomplishments than learning, more charms not person than graces of mind, more admirers than friends, mole fools than wise men for attendants.
Most people are surprised when they hear my somber figures: we know of 2 million species of plants, animals and microorganisms, and we can give them each a scientific name and a diagnostic description. We know, perhaps generously, more than just a little bit of the anatomy in no more than 10 percent. We have done thorough studies in fewer than one-tenth of 1 percent. And the total number of species on Earth is unknown to the nearest order of magnitude.
I'm with my friends more than I'm with my parents, but I know more about my parents than I know about my friends. That's something you get out of living with a person.
We need an NHS with fewer managers, fewer contractors and more power (rather than choice) to patients - with the input of the real experts: healthcare professionals.
Imagine this country without the 20 million illegals that are here. Imagine the state of California. And this is not... It's nothing more than an exercise. It's nothing more than a little game to play with yourself. Because it's instructive.
I've read a lot more than most of the people that I know, except for one of my really close friends reads way more than I do.

There are fewer ways of making love than they say, and more than one believes.
There have been fewer friends on earth than kings.
Family is more than DNA, more than who we used to be, more than we can imagine we will become.
[Her message to women and girls of the world] You are more powerful than you can possibly imagine. You are more powerful than you can possibly imagine. And it is incumbent upon you to use that power - not only for yourself, but for everyone else around you.
A new and valid idea is worth more than a regiment and fewer men can furnish the former than command the latter.
Reduction! One wants to say more than nature and one makes the impossible mistake of wanting to say it with more means than she, instead of fewer.
More than 3,500 hardcover novels are published each year. Even the most avid reader buys fewer than one a week.
You can gain more friends by being yourself than you can by putting up a front. You can gain more friends by building people up than you can by tearing them down. And you can gain more friends by taking a few minutes from each day to do something kind for someone, whether it be a friend or a complete stranger. What a difference one person can make!
