More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
To know thyself--in others self-concern Would'st thou know others? read thyself--and learn!
Friedrich Schiller
The brave person thinks of himself last of all.
Friedrich Schiller
Dare to err and to dream. Deep meaning often lies in childish plays.
Friedrich Schiller
Man is made of ordinary things, and habit is his nurse.

Friedrich Schiller
All things must man is the only creature that wills.
Friedrich Schiller
Man is made of the wholly common, and custom is his nurse woe then to them who lay irreverent hands on his old house-furniture, the dear inheritance from his forefathers: For time consecrates, and what is gray with age becomes religion.
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
Time flies on restless pinions - constant never.
Friedrich Schiller
Rigor pushed too far is sure to miss its aim, however good, as the bow snaps that is bent too stiffly.
Friedrich Schiller
To gain a crown by fighting is great, to reject it divine.
Friedrich Schiller
We must bear what Heaven sends.
Friedrich Schiller
Speech is always bolder than action.
Friedrich Schiller
Only through Beauty's morning-gate, dost thou penetrate the land of knowledge.
Friedrich Schiller
Appearance should never attain reality, And if nature conquers, then must art retire.
Friedrich Schiller
In a narrow circle the mind contracts. Man grows with his expanded needs.
Friedrich Schiller
If we do not find anything very pleasant, at least we shall find something new.
Friedrich Schiller
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
Love is only known by him who hopelessly persists in love.
Friedrich Schiller
