More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
The lamp of genius burns quicker than the lamp of life.
Friedrich Schiller
The voice of the majority is no proof of justice.
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
Time consecrates and what is gray with age becomes religion.
Friedrich Schiller
Yes great people are always subject to persecution and always getting into straits.
Friedrich Schiller
Nothing leads to good that is not natural.
Friedrich Schiller
As noble Art has survived noble nature, so too she marches ahead of it, fashioning and awakening by her inspiration.

Friedrich Schiller
The mountain cannot frighten one who was born on it.
Friedrich Schiller
What's old collapses, times change, And new life blossoms in the ruins.
Friedrich Schiller
Will it, and set to work briskly.
Friedrich Schiller
Many a crown shines spotless now that yet was deeply sullied in the winning.
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
Cling to thy native land, for it is the land of thy fathers?
Friedrich Schiller
Intellect--brain force.
Friedrich Schiller
It is easy to give advice from a port of safety.
Friedrich Schiller
O'er Ocean, with a thousand masts, sails forth the stripling bold- One boat, hard rescued from the deep, draws into port the old!
Friedrich Schiller
Ever building, building to the clouds, still building higher, and never reflecting that the poor narrow basis cannot sustain the giddy tottering column.
Friedrich Schiller
Rigor pushed too far is sure to miss its aim, however good, as the bow snaps that is bent too stiffly.
Friedrich Schiller
He who neglects the present moment throws away all he has.
Friedrich Schiller
Grace is the beauty of form under the influence of freedom.
Friedrich Schiller
