More quotes by 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

Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
Youth covets let not this covetousness seduce you.
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
Day's lustrous eyes grow heavy in sweet death.
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
The worst of me is known, and I can say that I am better than the reputation I bear.
Friedrich Schiller
Not he who scorns the Saviour's yoke Should wear his cross upon the heart.
Friedrich Schiller
Gray hairs are death's blossoms.
Friedrich Schiller
As soon as I have begun to fear I have ceased to fear.
Friedrich Schiller
A beautiful soul has no other merit than its own existence.
Friedrich Schiller
