Additional quotes by Friedrich Schiller

Sense of wrongs forget to treasure— Brethren, live in perfect love!
In the starry realms above,
God will mete as we may measure.

The joke loses everything when the joker laughs himself.

One people will we be, — a band of brothers; No danger, no distress shall sunder us. We will be freemen as our fathers were, And sooner welcome death than live as slaves. We will rely on God's almighty arm, And never quail before the power of man.

If you cannot please everyone with your deeds and your art, please a few. To please many is bad. - Friedrich Schiller
