A sublime soul can rise to all...

A sublime soul can rise to all kinds of greatness, but by an effort; it can tear itself from all bondage, to all that limits and constrains it, but only by strength of will. Consequently the sublime soul is only free by broken efforts.

Friedrich Schiller 493 quotes

When the measured dance of the hours brings back the happy smile of spring, the buried dead is born again in the life-glance of the sun. The germs which perished to the eye within the cold breast of the earth spring up with joy in the bright realm of day.

Friedrich Schiller 493 quotes

It is not the mere station of life that stamps the value on us, but the manner in which we act our part.

Friedrich Schiller 493 quotes

Yet have I ever heard it said ...

Yet have I ever heard it said that spies and tale-bearers have done more mischief in this world than poisoned bowl or the assassin's dagger.

Friedrich Schiller 493 quotes

What else is chance but the rude stone which receives its life from the sculptor's hand? Providence gives us chance, and man must mould it to his own designs.

Seraphs share with thee Knowledge; but Art, O Man, is thine alone!

O the eye's light is a noble gift of Heaven! All beings live from light, each fair created thing; the very plants turn with a joyful transport to the light.

Friedrich Schiller 493 quotes

Man ever talks, and Man ever d...

Man ever talks, and Man ever dreams Of better days that are yet to be, After glittering goal, that distant gleams, Running and racing untiringly. The worldly may grow old and young as it will, But the Hope of man is Improvement still. Hope bears him into life in her arms, She flutters around the boy's young bloom, The soul of youth with her magic warms, Nor rests with age in the silent tomb; For ends man his weary course at the grave, There plants he Hope o'er his ashes to wave.

Friedrich Schiller 493 quotes

Fate always wins, for our own heart within us Imperiously furthers its designs.

Strange customs do not thrive in foreign soil.

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.

Men show no mercy and expect no mercy, when honor calls, or when they fight for their idols or their gods.

Time is a blooming field: nature is ever teeming with life: and all is seed, and all is fruit.

Truth is more than a dream and a song.

Wine invents nothing; it only tattles.

In the ardor of pursuit men soon forget the goal from which they start.

Friedrich Schiller 493 quotes

While the womanly god demands ...

While the womanly god demands our veneration, the godlike woman kindles our love; but while we allow ourselves to melt in the celestial loveliness, the celestial self-sufficiency holds us back in awe.

Will it, and set to work briskly.
