Obviously the quote by Goethe is not a false doctine

Do you mean it is objectively true? Or just obvious to you? Sounds like a brand of logical positivism to me... you know where they said that only statements which could be verified to be true had any meaning. Only problem was that their thesis was not such a statement, eh? What a conundrum...
