Goethe’s wisdom on balancing learning & expression: Insights for creatives and educators

My brother-in-law is a huge fan of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Fun fact: I recently discovered that the proper German pronunciation of his name is “Goo-t’h.” Don’t worry if you’ve been saying it differently—apparently, people struggled with it even in his own time!
