More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
As inclination changes, thus ebbs and flows the unstable tide of public judgment.
Friedrich Schiller
Let him that sows the serpent's teeth not hope to reap a joyous harvest. Every crime has, in the moment of its perpetration, its own avenging angel,--dark misgivings at the inmost heart.
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
Like a dart the present glances, Silent stands the past sublime.
Friedrich Schiller
The gentlest man cannot live in peace if it does not please his wicked neighbor.
Friedrich Schiller
Every true genius is bound to be naive.
Friedrich Schiller
Against stupidity the very gods themselves contend in vain.
Friedrich Schiller
The brave person thinks of himself last of all.
Friedrich Schiller
Every man stamps his value on himself... man is made great or small by his own will.
Friedrich Schiller
Heaven and earth fight in vain against a dunce!
Friedrich Schiller
A brave man hazards life, but not his conscience.
Friedrich Schiller
Speech is always bolder than action.
Friedrich Schiller
Great souls endure in silence.
Friedrich Schiller
Gray hairs are death's blossoms.
Friedrich Schiller
The world's history is the world's judgment.
Friedrich Schiller
The worst of me is known, and I can say that I am better than the reputation I bear.
Friedrich Schiller
Only the soldier is a free man, because he can look death in the face.
Friedrich Schiller
In the society, where people are just parts in a larger machine, individuals are unable to develop fully.
Friedrich Schiller
Historians are prophets with their face turned backward.
Friedrich Schiller
I am better than my reputation
Friedrich Schiller
