More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
Modest humility is beauty's crown.
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
Man is made of ordinary things, and habit is his nurse.
Friedrich Schiller
Strange customs do not thrive in foreign soil.
Friedrich Schiller
If you wish to know yourself observe how others act. If you wish to understand others look into your own heart.
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In the case of a creative mind, it seems to me, the intellect has withdrawn its watchers from the gates, and the ideas rush in pell-mell and only then does it review and inspect the multitudes.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
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
Whatever lives, lives to die in sorrow. We engage our hearts, and grasp after the things of this world, only to undergo the pang of losing them.
Friedrich Schiller
Have Hope. Though clouds environs now, And gladness hides her face in scorn, Put thou the shadow from thy brow, - No night but hath its morn.
Friedrich Schiller
The world's history is the world's judgment.
Friedrich Schiller
Deaf rage that hears no leader.
Friedrich Schiller
Uncommon men require no common trust give him but scope and he will set the bounds.
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
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
Song forbids victorious deeds to die.
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
Emulation is a noble and just passion, full of appreciation.
Friedrich Schiller
Obedience is the Christian's crown.
Friedrich Schiller
Great souls endure in silence.
Friedrich Schiller
A beautiful soul has no other merit than its own existence.
Friedrich Schiller
