Simply walk God's path, let nothing else be your guide, then you walk right and straight, even if you walk alone.

Christian Morgenstern

Christian Morgenstern (1871–1914) war ein deutscher Dichter, Schriftsteller und Übersetzer, der unter anderem in Berlin und München wirkte. Bekanntheit erlangte er vor allem durch seine humoristischen „Galgenlieder“ und hintergründigen Sprachspiele, verfasste daneben aber auch mystisch-kontemplative Gedankenlyrik. Für Bibelleser bieten seine Aphorismen und Gedichte pointierte Beobachtungen menschlicher Schwächen und spiritueller Sinnsuche, wenngleich sein Spätwerk stark von der Anthroposophie Rudolf Steiners beeinflusst war.
