More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
What is life without the radiance of love?
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
Not without a shudder may the human hand reach into the mysterious urn of destiny.
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
If you have never seen beauty in a moment of suffering, you have never seen beauty at all. If you have never seen joy in a beautiful face, you have never seen joy at all.
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
A pity about the people! they are brave enough comrades, but they have heads like a soapboiler's.
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
A healthy nature needs no God or immortality
Friedrich Schiller
For the world is only governed by self-interest.
Friedrich Schiller
The hat is the pride of man for he who cannot keep his hat on before kings and emperors is no free man.
Friedrich Schiller
Deaf rage that hears no leader.
Friedrich Schiller
Soon is the struggle past, and to the earth, To the eternal sun, I render back These atoms, joined in me for pain and pleasure.
Friedrich Schiller
When the gods were more manlike, Men were more godlike.
Friedrich Schiller
