Not without a shudder may the human hand reach into the mysterious urn of destiny.
Friedrich Schiller
Man is an imitative creature.
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
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
It is not the mere station of life that stamps the value on us, but the manner in which we act our part.
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
Love is only known by him who hopelessly persists in love.
Friedrich Schiller
One drop of hatred left in the cup of joy turns the most blissful draught into poison.
Friedrich Schiller
Virtue, though clothed in a beggar's garb, commands respect.
Friedrich Schiller
Cowards have done good and kind actions, but a coward never pardoned.
Friedrich Schiller
Dare to be wrong and to dream.
Friedrich Schiller
Strange customs do not thrive in foreign soil.
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
Keep true to the dreams of your youth.
Friedrich Schiller
Accursed be he who plays with the devil.
Friedrich Schiller
Historians are prophets with their face turned backward.
Friedrich Schiller
An honest man you may form of windle-straws, but to make a rogue you must have grist.
Friedrich Schiller
Every man stamps his value on himself... man is made great or small by his own will.
Friedrich Schiller
There are evil spirits who suddenly fix their abode in man's unguarded breast, causing us to commit devilish deeds, and then, hurrying back to their native hell, leave behind the stings of remorse in the poisoned bosom.
Friedrich Schiller
What's old collapses, times change, And new life blossoms in the ruins.
Friedrich Schiller
