More quotes by 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
Deaf rage that hears no leader.
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
The lamp of genius burns quicker than the lamp of life.
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
Be true, and thou shalt fetter time with everlasting chain.
Friedrich Schiller
There is a nobility in the world of manners.
Friedrich Schiller
Youth covets let not this covetousness seduce you.
Friedrich Schiller
It may here be justly said, that genuine morality is preserved only in the school of adversity, and a state of continuous prosperity may easily prove a quicksand to virtue.
Friedrich Schiller
In a narrow circle the mind grows narrow. The more one expands, the larger their aims.
Friedrich Schiller
It is through beauty that we arrive at freedom.
Friedrich Schiller
