More quotes by Friedrich Schiller
You saw his weakness, and he will never forgive you.
Friedrich Schiller
Man is never so authentically himself as when at play.
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
To the fool-king belongs the world.
Friedrich Schiller
The key to education is the experience of beauty.
Friedrich Schiller
Secrecy is for the happy,--misery, hopeless misery, needs no veil under a thousand suns it dares act openly.
Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller

Friedrich Schiller
Against stupidity the very gods themselves contend in vain.
Friedrich Schiller
Keep true to the dreams of your youth.
Friedrich Schiller
A beautiful soul has no other merit than its own existence.
Friedrich Schiller
Day's lustrous eyes grow heavy in sweet death.
Friedrich Schiller
Every true genius is bound to be naive.
Friedrich Schiller
I feel that I am a man of destiny.
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In the case of a creative mind, it seems to me, the intellect has withdrawn its watchers from the gates, and the ideas rush in pell-mell and only then does it review and inspect the multitudes.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
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
Stern is the visage of necessity.
Friedrich Schiller
As inclination changes, thus ebbs and flows the unstable tide of public judgment.
Friedrich Schiller
