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.

Spring flies, and with it all the train it leads and flowers, in fading, leave us but their seeds.
Friedrich Schiller
What reason, like the careful ant, draws laboriously together, the wind of accident sometimes collects in a moment.
Friedrich Schiller
The gentlest man cannot live in peace if it does not please his wicked neighbor.
Friedrich Schiller
Love is only known by him who hopelessly persists in love.
Friedrich Schiller
It is difficult to discriminate the voice of truth from amid the clamor raised by heated partisans.
Friedrich Schiller
Historians are prophets with their face turned backward.
Friedrich Schiller
Yes great people are always subject to persecution and always getting into straits.
