More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
If you would attain to your highest, go look upon a flowerwhat the flower does willessly, that do willingly.
Friedrich Schiller
Cling to thy native land, for it is the land of thy fathers?
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
Song forbids victorious deeds to die.
Friedrich Schiller
What is life without the radiance of love?
Friedrich Schiller
Don't let your heart depend on things That ornament life in a fleeting way! He who possesses, let him learn to lose, He who is fortunate, let him learn pain.
Friedrich Schiller
The lamp of genius burns quicker than the lamp of life.
Friedrich Schiller
Dare to err and to dream. Deep meaning often lies in childish plays.
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
Far must thy researches go Wouldst thou learn the world to know Thou must tempt the dark abyss Wouldst thou prove what Being is Naught but firmness gains the prize, Naught but fullness makes us wise, Buried deep truth e'er lies.
Friedrich Schiller
All things must man is the only creature that wills.
Friedrich Schiller
The greater part of humanity is too much harassed and fatigued by the struggle with want, to rally itself for a new and sterner struggle with error.
Friedrich Schiller
It is not flesh and blood, but heart which makes us fathers and sons.
Friedrich Schiller
Only through Beauty's morning-gate, dost thou penetrate the land of knowledge.
Friedrich Schiller
As soon as I have begun to fear I have ceased to fear.
Friedrich Schiller
A noble heart will always capitulate to reason.
Friedrich Schiller
A pity about the people! they are brave enough comrades, but they have heads like a soapboiler's.
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
Arrow-swift the present sweepeth, and motionless forever stands the past.
Friedrich Schiller
O that it might remain eternally green, The beautiful time of youthful love.
Friedrich Schiller
