More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
A brave man hazards life, but not his conscience.
Friedrich Schiller
Mankind is made great or little by its own will.
Friedrich Schiller
Appearance should never attain reality, And if nature conquers, then must art retire.
Friedrich Schiller
O God, how lovely still is life!
Friedrich Schiller
Against stupidity the very gods themselves contend in vain.
Friedrich Schiller
Weep, for the light is dead.
Friedrich Schiller
I am called The richest monarch in the Christian world The sun in my dominion never sets.
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
Individual character is in the right that is in strict consistence with itself. Self-contradiction is the only wrong.
Friedrich Schiller
He who has done his best for his own time has lived for all times.
Friedrich Schiller
No greater grief than to remember days of gladness when sorrow is at hand.
Friedrich Schiller
It is through beauty that we arrive at freedom.
Friedrich Schiller
Toil of science swells the wealth of art.
Friedrich Schiller
O jealousy! thou magnifier of trifles.
Friedrich Schiller
The worst of me is known, and I can say that I am better than the reputation I bear.
Friedrich Schiller
Every man stamps his value on himself... man is made great or small by his own will.
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
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
As freely as the firmament embraces the world, so mercy must encircle friend and foe. The sun poursforth impartially his beams through all the regions of infinity heaven bestows the dew equally on every thirsty plant. Whatever is good and comes from on high is universal and without reserve: but in the heart's recesses darkness dwells.
Friedrich Schiller
Youth covets let not this covetousness seduce you.
Friedrich Schiller
