More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
The happy man does not notice the flight of time.
Friedrich Schiller
Votes should be weighed not counted.
Friedrich Schiller
False fancy brings real misery.
Friedrich Schiller
Deeper meaning resides in the fairy tales told to me in my childhood than in the truth that is taught by life.
Friedrich Schiller
Gray hairs are death's blossoms.
Friedrich Schiller
A brave man hazards life, but not his conscience.
Friedrich Schiller
Like a dart the present glances, Silent stands the past sublime.
Friedrich Schiller
Futurity is impregnable to mortal ken: no prayer pierces through heaven's adamantine walls. Whether the birds fly right or left, whatever be the aspect of the stars, the book of nature is a maze, dreams are a lie, and every sign a falsehood.
Friedrich Schiller
Spring flies, and with it all the train it leads and flowers, in fading, leave us but their seeds.
Friedrich Schiller
Nothing, it is true, is more common than for both Science and Art to pay homage to the spirit of the age, and for creative taste to accept the law of critical taste.
Friedrich Schiller
Youth covets let not this covetousness seduce you.
Friedrich Schiller
Many a smiling face hides a mourning heart but grief alone teaches us what we are.
Friedrich Schiller
The world's history is constant, like the laws of nature, and simple, like the souls of men. The same conditions continually produce the same results.
Friedrich Schiller
Eternity gives nothing back of what one leaves out of the minutes.
Friedrich Schiller
Man, one may say, was never in such a completely animal condition but he has, on the other hand, never escaped from it.
Friedrich Schiller
The man who fears nothing is as powerful as he who is feared by everybody.
Friedrich Schiller
One drop of hatred left in the cup of joy turns the most blissful draught into poison.
Friedrich Schiller
Freedom exists only with power.
Friedrich Schiller
He that is overcautious will accomplish little.
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
