Friedrich Schiller
Great souls suffer in silence.

Friedrich Schiller
The strong man is strongest when alone.
Friedrich Schiller

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
Arrow-swift the present sweepeth, and motionless forever stands the past.
Friedrich Schiller
A noble heart will always capitulate to reason.
Friedrich Schiller
It is well for a man when he has learned to endure what he cannot change, and to give up with dignity what he cannot retain.
Friedrich Schiller
Dare to be wrong and to dream.
Friedrich Schiller
