A noble heart will always capitulate to reason.
Friedrich Schiller
His saying was: live and let live.
Friedrich Schiller
Even the weak become strong when they are united.
Friedrich Schiller
Dare to be wrong and to dream.
Friedrich Schiller
Virtue, though clothed in a beggar's garb, commands respect.
Friedrich Schiller
As freely as the firmament embraces the world, so mercy must encircle friend and foe. The sun poursforth impartially his beams through all the regions of infinity heaven bestows the dew equally on every thirsty plant. Whatever is good and comes from on high is universal and without reserve: but in the heart's recesses darkness dwells.
Friedrich Schiller
No cause has he to say his doom is harsh, who's made the master of his destiny.
Friedrich Schiller
The lamp of genius burns quicker than the lamp of life.
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
Obedience decks the Christian most.
Friedrich Schiller
He, that noble prize possessing He that boasts a friend that's true, He whom woman's love is blessing, Let him join the chorus too!
Friedrich Schiller
O who knows what slumbers in the background of the times?
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
A gloomy guest fits not a wedding feast.
Friedrich Schiller
O that it might remain eternally green, The beautiful time of youthful love.
Friedrich Schiller
One can give advice comfortably from a safe port.
Friedrich Schiller
Spring flies, and with it all the train it leads and flowers, in fading, leave us but their seeds.
Friedrich Schiller
Aesthetic matters are fundamental for the harmonious development of both society and the individual.
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
Deaf rage that hears no leader.
Friedrich Schiller
