More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
Posterity weaves no garlands for imitators.
Friedrich Schiller
Sentimental poetry differs from naive poetry in that it relates the real state at which the latter stops to ideas and applies ideas to that reality.
Friedrich Schiller
Day's lustrous eyes grow heavy in sweet death.
Friedrich Schiller
Man is made of ordinary things, and habit is his nurse.
Friedrich Schiller
Utility is the great idol of the age, to which all powers must do service and all talents swear allegiance. In this great balance of utility, the spiritual service of art has no weight, and, deprived of all encouragement, it vanishes from the noisy Vanity Fair of our time.
Friedrich Schiller
One can give advice comfortably from a safe port.
Friedrich Schiller
Most gladly would I give the blood-stained laurel for the first violet which March brings us, the fragrant pledge of the new-fledged year.
Friedrich Schiller
Let him that sows the serpent's teeth not hope to reap a joyous harvest. Every crime has, in the moment of its perpetration, its own avenging angel,--dark misgivings at the inmost heart.
Friedrich Schiller
To save all we must risk all.
Friedrich Schiller
A merely fallen enemy may rise again, but the reconciled one is truly vanquished.
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 will of man is his happiness.
Friedrich Schiller
I am better than my reputation
Friedrich Schiller
In the society, where people are just parts in a larger machine, individuals are unable to develop fully.
Friedrich Schiller
Thus Arm in Arm with thee I dare defy my century into the lists.
Friedrich Schiller
The game of life looks cheerful when one carries a treasure safe in his heart.
Friedrich Schiller
If you cannot please everyone with your deeds and your art, please a few. To please many is bad.
Friedrich Schiller
Soon is the struggle past, and to the earth, To the eternal sun, I render back These atoms, joined in me for pain and pleasure.
Friedrich Schiller
A noble soul spreads even over a face in which the architectonic beauty is wanting an irresistible grace, and a often even triumphs over the natural disfavor.
Friedrich Schiller
Grace is the beauty of form under the influence of freedom.
Friedrich Schiller
