More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
Yet have I ever heard it said that spies and tale-bearers have done more mischief in this world than poisoned bowl or the assassin's dagger.
Friedrich Schiller
O that it might remain eternally green, The beautiful time of youthful love.
Friedrich Schiller
It is difficult to discriminate the voice of truth from amid the clamor raised by heated partisans.
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
That which is so universal as death must be a benefit.
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
Individual character is in the right that is in strict consistence with itself. Self-contradiction is the only wrong.
Friedrich Schiller
Far must thy researches go Wouldst thou learn the world to know Thou must tempt the dark abyss Wouldst thou prove what Being is Naught but firmness gains the prize, Naught but fullness makes us wise, Buried deep truth e'er lies.
Friedrich Schiller
This is the curse of an evil deed, that it incites and must bring forth more evil.
Friedrich Schiller
If you cannot please everyone with your deeds and your art, please a few. To please many is bad.
Friedrich Schiller
A brave man hazards life, but not his conscience.
Friedrich Schiller
It is play and only play that makes man complete.
Friedrich Schiller
In the society, where people are just parts in a larger machine, individuals are unable to develop fully.
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
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
The hat is the pride of man for he who cannot keep his hat on before kings and emperors is no free man.
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
Obedience is the Christian's crown.
Friedrich Schiller
Joy, in Nature's wide dominion, Mightiest cause of all is found And 'tis joy that moves the pinion When the wheel of time goes round.
Friedrich Schiller
It is not flesh and blood, but heart which makes us fathers and sons.
Friedrich Schiller
