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

More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
The happy man does not notice the flight of time.
Friedrich Schiller
That which is so universal as death must be a benefit.
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
I feel that I am a man of destiny.
Friedrich Schiller
Historians are prophets with their face turned backward.
Friedrich Schiller
We are too prone to find fault let us look for some of the perfections.
Friedrich Schiller
The mountain cannot frighten one who was born on it.
Friedrich Schiller
Man is never so authentically himself as when at play.
Friedrich Schiller
In the case of a creative mind, it seems to me, the intellect has withdrawn its watchers from the gates, and the ideas rush in pell-mell and only then does it review and inspect the multitudes.
Friedrich Schiller
Strange customs do not thrive in foreign soil.
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
Like a dart the present glances, Silent stands the past sublime.
Friedrich Schiller
You saw his weakness, and he will never forgive you.
Friedrich Schiller
Without a home must the soldier go, a changeful wanderer, and can warm himself at no home-lit hearth.
Friedrich Schiller
It is only through the morning gate of the beautiful that you can penetrate into the realm of knowledge. That which we feel here as beauty we shall one day know as truth.
Friedrich Schiller
A healthy nature needs no God or immortality
Friedrich Schiller
Eternity gives nothing back of what one leaves out of the minutes.
Friedrich Schiller
It is play and only play that makes man complete.
Friedrich Schiller
What's old collapses, times change, And new life blossoms in the ruins.
Friedrich Schiller
I am called The richest monarch in the Christian world The sun in my dominion never sets.
Friedrich Schiller
