More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
You saw his weakness, and he will never forgive you.
Friedrich Schiller
O'er Ocean, with a thousand masts, sails forth the stripling bold- One boat, hard rescued from the deep, draws into port the old!
Friedrich Schiller
Joy, in Nature's wide dominion, Mightiest cause of all is found And 'tis joy that moves the pinion When the wheel of time goes round.
Friedrich Schiller
Freedom can occur only through education.
Friedrich Schiller
Against stupidity the very gods themselves contend in vain.
Friedrich Schiller
Yet have I ever heard it said that spies and tale-bearers have done more mischief in this world than poisoned bowl or the assassin's dagger.
Friedrich Schiller
No, no! I do nature injustice. She gave us inventive faculty, and set us naked, and helpless on the shore of this great ocean,--the world swim those who can, the heavy may go to the bottom.
Friedrich Schiller
You have to go the rounds from individual to individual in order to gather the totality of the race.
Friedrich Schiller
Futurity is impregnable to mortal ken: no prayer pierces through heaven's adamantine walls. Whether the birds fly right or left, whatever be the aspect of the stars, the book of nature is a maze, dreams are a lie, and every sign a falsehood.
Friedrich Schiller
Secrecy is for the happy,--misery, hopeless misery, needs no veil under a thousand suns it dares act openly.
Friedrich Schiller
It is only through the morning gate of the beautiful that you can penetrate into the realm of knowledge. That which we feel here as beauty we shall one day know as truth.
Friedrich Schiller
Virtue, though clothed in a beggar's garb, commands respect.
Friedrich Schiller
Stern is the visage of necessity.
Friedrich Schiller
This is the curse of an evil deed, that it incites and must bring forth more evil.
Friedrich Schiller
It is not flesh and blood, but heart which makes us fathers and sons.
Friedrich Schiller
Joy, thou spark from Heav'n immortal, Daughter of Elysium! Drunk with fire, toward Heaven advancing Goddess, to thy shrine we come. Thy sweet magic brings together What stern Custom spreads afar All men become brothers Where thy happy wing-beats are.
Friedrich Schiller
Joy all creatures drink At nature's bosoms.
Friedrich Schiller
Never the grave gives back what it has won!
Friedrich Schiller
Pain is short, and joy is eternal.
Friedrich Schiller
Every true genius is bound to be naive.
Friedrich Schiller
