Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
An axe at home saves hiring a carpenter.
Friedrich Schiller
He that is overcautious will accomplish little.
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
Will it, and set to work briskly.
Friedrich Schiller
Weep, for the light is dead.
Friedrich Schiller
O who knows what slumbers in the background of the times?
Friedrich Schiller
Virtue, though clothed in a beggar's garb, commands respect.
Friedrich Schiller
