More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
Disappointments are to the soul what a thunderstorm is to the air.
Friedrich Schiller
The storm is master. Man, as a ball, is tossed twixt winds and billows.
Friedrich Schiller
The world's history is the world's judgment.
Friedrich Schiller
Utility is the great idol of the age, to which all powers must do service and all talents swear allegiance. In this great balance of utility, the spiritual service of art has no weight, and, deprived of all encouragement, it vanishes from the noisy Vanity Fair of our time.
Friedrich Schiller
It is not flesh and blood, but heart which makes us fathers and sons.
Friedrich Schiller
Freedom can occur only through education.
Friedrich Schiller
What's old collapses, times change, And new life blossoms in the ruins.
Friedrich Schiller
If you wish to know yourself observe how others act. If you wish to understand others look into your own heart.
Friedrich Schiller
Accursed be he who plays with the devil.
Friedrich Schiller
O'er Ocean, with a thousand masts, sails forth the stripling bold- One boat, hard rescued from the deep, draws into port the old!
Friedrich Schiller
O God, how lovely still is life!
Friedrich Schiller
Seraphs share with thee Knowledge but Art, O Man, is thine alone!
Friedrich Schiller
If we do not find anything very pleasant, at least we shall find something new.
Friedrich Schiller
Strange customs do not thrive in foreign soil.
Friedrich Schiller
Never the grave gives back what it has won!
Friedrich Schiller
Lose not yourself in a far off time, seize the moment that is thine.
Friedrich Schiller
Foster the beautiful, and every hour thou tallest new flowers to birth.
Friedrich Schiller
Will it, and set to work briskly.
Friedrich Schiller
There are evil spirits who suddenly fix their abode in man's unguarded breast, causing us to commit devilish deeds, and then, hurrying back to their native hell, leave behind the stings of remorse in the poisoned bosom.
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
