O jealousy! thou magnifier of trifles.
Friedrich Schiller
You have to go the rounds from individual to individual in order to gather the totality of the race.
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
Don't let your heart depend on things That ornament life in a fleeting way! He who possesses, let him learn to lose, He who is fortunate, let him learn pain.
Friedrich Schiller
Lose not yourself in a far off time, seize the moment that is thine.
Friedrich Schiller
Whatever lives, lives to die in sorrow. We engage our hearts, and grasp after the things of this world, only to undergo the pang of losing them.
Friedrich Schiller
I follow my heart, for I can trust it.
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
It is difficult to discriminate the voice of truth from amid the clamor raised by heated partisans.
Friedrich Schiller
Have Hope. Though clouds environs now, And gladness hides her face in scorn, Put thou the shadow from thy brow, - No night but hath its morn.
Friedrich Schiller
When you are not happy with your life, always think that someone is happy simply because you exist
Friedrich Schiller
Alas! When duty grows thy law, enjoyment fades away.
Friedrich Schiller
Without a home must the soldier go, a changeful wanderer, and can warm himself at no home-lit hearth.
Friedrich Schiller
Where there is much freedom there is much error.
Friedrich Schiller
On dreary night let lusty sunshine fall.
Friedrich Schiller
That which is so universal as death must be a benefit.
Friedrich Schiller
Who dares nothing, need hope for nothing.
Friedrich Schiller
Accursed be he who plays with the devil.
Friedrich Schiller
The future comes slowly, the present flies and the past stands still forever.
Friedrich Schiller
Only the soldier is a free man, because he can look death in the face.
