289. The Ideas Behind the Building of the Goetheanum: The Building as a Setting for the Mystery Plays 02 Oct 1920, Dornach

Rudolf Steiner
What was spoken at that time out of truly shaped spiritual science oriented to anthroposophy is not the speech of fantasy or enthusiasm. It is the speech of spiritual research that can give an account of the nature of its research to the most exacting mathematician, as I said at another time.
289. The Philosophy of Spiritual Activity (1963): Introduction

Hugo S. Bergman
Without him, thinking would not exist. 4. Steiner's Anthroposophy—with which we are not dealing here—differs from the “mystical” schools in the extremely high value it accords to thinking.
289. Poetry and the Art of Speech: Decline and Re-edification
Tr. Julia Wedgwood, Andrew Welburn

Marie Steiner
Hard work makes the voice hard and rugged, and her struggling with material tasks must have a coarsening effect unless there happens to be religion or anthroposophy to restore the balance. But a Madonna is hardly likely to be subjected to such physical labours in the heavenly heights: A certain aura should always hedge her about – even on the pedestal.
346. Lectures to Priests The Apocalypse: Lecture IV 08 Sep 1924, Dornach

who see all kinds of symbols and the like in the Bible and who break it up into a lot of symbols. Anthroposophy doesn't do this. It only tries to understand what the original text is really saying, and it can sometimes do this by proceeding from the symbolic language.
57. The Four Temperaments 04 Mar 1909, Berlin
Tr. Unknown

Rudolf Steiner
This is what we mean when we say we must solve a riddle every moment. Anthroposophy acts not by means of sermons, exhortations, or catechisms, but by creating a social groundwork, upon which human beings can come to know each other.
127. The Festivals and Their Meaning I: Christmas: The Birth of the Sun Spirit as the Spirit of the Earth. The Thirteen Holy Nights 26 Dec 1911, Hanover
Tr. Dorothy S. Osmond

Rudolf Steiner
The insight for which we prepare ourselves to-day through Anthroposophy, through the wisdom belonging to the fifth Post-Atlantean epoch of civilisation, flashed up in the form of vision from the vestiges of ancient clairvoyance still surviving during the age when the Mystery of Golgotha took place; it flashed up in the Gnostics, those remarkable, enlightened men who lived at the turning-point of the old and the new eras, whose conception of the Christ Mystery differed in respect of form but not in respect of content, from our own.
176. The Karma of Materialism: Lecture VII 11 Sep 1917, Berlin
Tr. Rita Stebbing

Rudolf Steiner
When next we meet I shall attempt to present Luther as a self-contained individuality—not only as he appeared in his time but as he appears within mankind's evolution as a whole—from a point of view obtainable only through Anthroposophy. 26. Thomas Aquinas 1225–1274 Scholastic Philosopher27.
148. Fifth Gospel (D. Osmond): Lecture I 01 Oct 1913, Oslo
Tr. Dorothy S. Osmond

Rudolf Steiner
If nothing else indicated the contrary, it might possibly be thought that a knowledge of the whole of Theosophy or Anthroposophy is necessary before there can be any true conception of Christ. But if we turn aside from this and look at the development of the spiritual life of the last centuries, we are met from century to century by the existence of much profound and detailed knowledge aiming at a comprehension of the Christ and His revelation.
302. Education for Adolescents: Lecture Three 14 Jun 1921, Stuttgart
Tr. Carl Hoffmann

Rudolf Steiner
But even they do not consider the inner concrete nature of soul and spirit. It is exactly this consideration that anthroposophy is to contribute toward an understanding of the human being. It is only this that will, in a conscious way, make the adaptation of our lessons to the human life processes possible.
302. Education for Adolescents: Lecture Four 15 Jun 1921, Stuttgart
Tr. Carl Hoffmann

Rudolf Steiner
As far as our school is concerned, the actual spiritual life can be present only because its staff consists of anthroposophists. We do not teach anthroposophy—our school must not represent a world conception—but through the way the teachers are acting, through their inner life, the soul and spirit elements enter the school as though through the imponderables of the soul.
