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
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
Youth covets let not this covetousness seduce you.
Friedrich Schiller
Art is the daughter of freedom.
Friedrich Schiller
We must bear what Heaven sends.
Friedrich Schiller
