More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
Lose not yourself in a far off time, seize the moment that is thine.
Friedrich Schiller
The game of life looks cheerful when one carries a treasure safe in his heart.
Friedrich Schiller
Deaf rage that hears no leader.
Friedrich Schiller
Secrecy is for the happy,--misery, hopeless misery, needs no veil under a thousand suns it dares act openly.
Friedrich Schiller
The storm is master. Man, as a ball, is tossed twixt winds and billows.
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
It is criminal to steal a purse, daring to steal a fortune, a mark of greatness to steal a crown. The blame diminishes as the guilt increases.
Friedrich Schiller
The worst of me is known, and I can say that I am better than the reputation I bear.
Friedrich Schiller
Man is made of the wholly common, and custom is his nurse woe then to them who lay irreverent hands on his old house-furniture, the dear inheritance from his forefathers: For time consecrates, and what is gray with age becomes religion.
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
The lamp of genius burns quicker than the lamp of life.
Friedrich Schiller
It is easy to give advice from a port of safety.
Friedrich Schiller
Disappointments are to the soul what a thunderstorm is to the air.
Friedrich Schiller
Have Hope. Though clouds environs now, And gladness hides her face in scorn, Put thou the shadow from thy brow, - No night but hath its morn.
Friedrich Schiller
One can give advice comfortably from a safe port.
Friedrich Schiller
The voice of the majority is no proof of justice.
Friedrich Schiller
That which is so universal as death must be a benefit.
Friedrich Schiller
Only the soldier is a free man, because he can look death in the face.
Friedrich Schiller
He who has done his best for his own time has lived for all times.
Friedrich Schiller
The brave person thinks of himself last of all.
Friedrich Schiller
