More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
It does not prove a thing to be right because the majority say it is so.
Friedrich Schiller
Obedience is the Christian's crown.
Friedrich Schiller
Joy is the mainspring in the whole Of endless Nature's calm rotation. Joy moves the dazzling wheels that roll In the great Time-piece of Creation.
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
Man is never so authentically himself as when at play.
Friedrich Schiller
Historians are prophets with their face turned backward.
Friedrich Schiller
Freedom exists only with power.
Friedrich Schiller
Even weak men when united are powerful.
Friedrich Schiller
Man only plays when in the full meaning of the word he is a man, and he is only completely a man when he plays.
Friedrich Schiller
Only through Beauty's morning-gate, dost thou penetrate the land of knowledge.
Friedrich Schiller
I feel that I am a man of destiny.
Friedrich Schiller
Appearance should never attain reality, And if nature conquers, then must art retire.
Friedrich Schiller
Utility is the great idol of the age, to which all powers must do service and all talents swear allegiance. In this great balance of utility, the spiritual service of art has no weight, and, deprived of all encouragement, it vanishes from the noisy Vanity Fair of our time.
Friedrich Schiller
To the fool-king belongs the world.
Friedrich Schiller
Love can sun the realms of night.
Friedrich Schiller
If you would attain to your highest, go look upon a flowerwhat the flower does willessly, that do willingly.
Friedrich Schiller
As freely as the firmament embraces the world, so mercy must encircle friend and foe. The sun poursforth impartially his beams through all the regions of infinity heaven bestows the dew equally on every thirsty plant. Whatever is good and comes from on high is universal and without reserve: but in the heart's recesses darkness dwells.
Friedrich Schiller
If we do not find anything very pleasant, at least we shall find something new.
Friedrich Schiller
Mankind is made great or little by its own will.
Friedrich Schiller
Not he who scorns the Saviour's yoke Should wear his cross upon the heart.
Friedrich Schiller
