More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
In the case of a creative mind, it seems to me, the intellect has withdrawn its watchers from the gates, and the ideas rush in pell-mell and only then does it review and inspect the multitudes.
Friedrich Schiller
A virtuous name is the precious only good, for which queens and peasants' wives must contest together.
Friedrich Schiller
To know thyself--in others self-concern Would'st thou know others? read thyself--and learn!
Friedrich Schiller
Cling to thy native land, for it is the land of thy fathers?
Friedrich Schiller
One drop of hatred left in the cup of joy turns the most blissful draught into poison.
Friedrich Schiller
Wouldst thou know thyself, observe the actions of others. Wouldst thou other men know, look thou within thine own heart.
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
It does not prove a thing to be right because the majority say it is so.
Friedrich Schiller
What else is chance but the rude stone which receives its life from the sculptor's hand? Providence gives us chance, and man must mould it to his own designs.
Friedrich Schiller
Great souls endure in silence.
Friedrich Schiller
Sentimental poetry differs from naive poetry in that it relates the real state at which the latter stops to ideas and applies ideas to that reality.
Friedrich Schiller
When the gods were more manlike, Men were more godlike.
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
The future comes slowly, the present flies and the past stands still forever.
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
Grace is the beauty of form under the influence of freedom.
Friedrich Schiller
No cause has he to say his doom is harsh, who's made the master of his destiny.
Friedrich Schiller
I follow my heart, for I can trust it.
Friedrich Schiller
Man is made of the wholly common, and custom is his nurse woe then to them who lay irreverent hands on his old house-furniture, the dear inheritance from his forefathers: For time consecrates, and what is gray with age becomes religion.
Friedrich Schiller
The will of man is his happiness.
Friedrich Schiller
