Friedrich Schiller
Whatever is not forbidden is permitted.
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
What reason, like the careful ant, draws laboriously together, the wind of accident sometimes collects in a moment.
Friedrich Schiller
If you wish to know yourself observe how others act. If you wish to understand others look into your own heart.
