Friedrich Schiller
Many a smiling face hides a mourning heart but grief alone teaches us what we are.
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

Friedrich Schiller
Every man stamps his value on himself... man is made great or small by his own will.
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
He cannot complain of a hard sentence, who is made master of his own fate.
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
The game of life looks cheerful when one carries a treasure safe in his heart.
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
