Wenn Goethe das Problem des Mephisto schon vollständig durchdrungen hätte, so hätte er nicht seinen Mephisto wie einen modernen Kavalier auftreten lassen, denn es gehört schon einmal zum Wesen des Ahriman-Mephisto, nicht so viel Ätherkraft zu haben, daß er die menschliche physische Gestalt vollständig durchorganisieren kann.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Die Welt als Ergebnis von Gleichgewichtswirkungen.
