Additional quotes by Friedrich Schiller

I am better than my reputation.

Joy from truth's own glass of fire
Sweetly on the searcher smiles;
Lest on virtue's steeps he tire,
Joy the tedious path beguiles.
High on faith's bright hill before us,
See her banner proudly wave!
Joy, too, swells the angels' chorus,— Bursts the bondage of the grave!

On the mountains there is freedom! The world is perfect everywhere, save where man comes with his torment.

The concrete life of the individual is destroyed in order that the abstract idea of the whole may drag out its sorry existence. - Friedrich Schiller
