More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
Yes great people are always subject to persecution and always getting into straits.
Friedrich Schiller
As noble Art has survived noble nature, so too she marches ahead of it, fashioning and awakening by her inspiration. Before Truth sends her triumphant light into the depths of the heart, imagination catches its rays, and the peaks of humanity will be glowing when humid night still lingers in the valleys.
Friedrich Schiller
Be true, and thou shalt fetter time with everlasting chain.
Friedrich Schiller
Truth lives on in the midst of deception.
Friedrich Schiller
Spring flies, and with it all the train it leads and flowers, in fading, leave us but their seeds.
Friedrich Schiller
If you have never seen beauty in a moment of suffering, you have never seen beauty at all. If you have never seen joy in a beautiful face, you have never seen joy at all.
Friedrich Schiller
If we do not find anything very pleasant, at least we shall find something new.
Friedrich Schiller
That which is so universal as death must be a benefit.
Friedrich Schiller
The lamp of genius burns quicker than the lamp of life.
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
It is not flesh and blood, but heart which makes us fathers and sons.
Friedrich Schiller
This is the curse of an evil deed, that it incites and must bring forth more evil.
Friedrich Schiller
Like a dart the present glances, Silent stands the past sublime.
Friedrich Schiller
No greater grief than to remember days of gladness when sorrow is at hand.
Friedrich Schiller
Have Faith. Where'er thy bark is driven, - The calm's disport, the tempest's mirth, - Know this: God rules the hosts of heaven, The habitants of earth.
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
What reason, like the careful ant, draws laboriously together, the wind of accident sometimes collects in a moment.
Friedrich Schiller
What the inner voice says will not disappoint the hoping soul.
Friedrich Schiller
Aesthetic matters are fundamental for the harmonious development of both society and the individual.
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
