Have Faith. Where'er thy bark is driven, - The calm's disport, the tempest's mirth, - Know this: God rules the hosts of heaven, The habitants of earth.
Friedrich Schiller
Joy, in Nature's wide dominion, Mightiest cause of all is found And 'tis joy that moves the pinion When the wheel of time goes round.
Friedrich Schiller
Deeper meaning resides in the fairy tales told to me in my childhood than in the truth that is taught by life.
Friedrich Schiller

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
Will it, and set to work briskly.
Friedrich Schiller
What is life without the radiance of love?
Friedrich Schiller
Aesthetic matters are fundamental for the harmonious development of both society and the individual.
Friedrich Schiller
No, no! I do nature injustice. She gave us inventive faculty, and set us naked, and helpless on the shore of this great ocean,--the world swim those who can, the heavy may go to the bottom.
Friedrich Schiller
Obedience is the Christian's crown.
