Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller

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
Youth covets let not this covetousness seduce you.
Friedrich Schiller
