More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
Wouldst thou know thyself, observe the actions of others. Wouldst thou other men know, look thou within thine own heart.
Friedrich Schiller
Cowards have done good and kind actions, but a coward never pardoned.
Friedrich Schiller
The lamp of genius burns quicker than the lamp of life.
Friedrich Schiller
The painter is, as to the execution of his work, a mechanic but as to his conception and spirit and design he is hardly below even the poet.
Friedrich Schiller
False fancy brings real misery.
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
Nothing, it is true, is more common than for both Science and Art to pay homage to the spirit of the age, and for creative taste to accept the law of critical taste.
Friedrich Schiller
Dare to err and to dream. Deep meaning often lies in childish plays.
Friedrich Schiller
As noble Art has survived noble nature, so too she marches ahead of it, fashioning and awakening by her inspiration. 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
Man, one may say, was never in such a completely animal condition but he has, on the other hand, never escaped from it.
Friedrich Schiller
The voice of the majority is no proof of justice.
Friedrich Schiller
No doubt the artist is the child of his time but woe to him if he is also its disciple, or even its favorite.
Friedrich Schiller
In the society, where people are just parts in a larger machine, individuals are unable to develop fully.
Friedrich Schiller
A merely fallen enemy may rise again, but the reconciled one is truly vanquished.
Friedrich Schiller
Whatever lives, lives to die in sorrow. We engage our hearts, and grasp after the things of this world, only to undergo the pang of losing them.
Friedrich Schiller
The will of man is his happiness.
Friedrich Schiller
Fate always wins, for our own heart within us Imperiously furthers its designs.
Friedrich Schiller
The gentlest man cannot live in peace if it does not please his wicked neighbor.
Friedrich Schiller
Many a smiling face hides a mourning heart but grief alone teaches us what we are.
Friedrich Schiller
As soon as I have begun to fear I have ceased to fear.
Friedrich Schiller
