Only the soldier is a free man, because he can look death in the face.
Friedrich Schiller
A gloomy guest fits not a wedding feast.
Friedrich Schiller
A beautiful soul has no other merit than its own existence.
Friedrich Schiller
Secrecy is for the happy,--misery, hopeless misery, needs no veil under a thousand suns it dares act openly.
Friedrich Schiller
Yes great people are always subject to persecution and always getting into straits.
