Friedrich Schiller
If you have never seen beauty in a moment of suffering, you have never seen beauty at all. If you have never seen joy in a beautiful face, you have never seen joy at all.
Friedrich Schiller
A healthy nature needs no God or immortality
Friedrich Schiller
In a narrow circle the mind grows narrow. The more one expands, the larger their aims.
Friedrich Schiller
