• Folly, thou conquerest, and I must yield!
  Against stupidity the very gods
  Themselves contend in vain. Exalted reason,
  Resplendent daughter of the head divine,
  Wise foundress of the system of the world,
  Guide of the stars, who are thou then, if thou,
  Bound to the tail of folly's uncurb'd steed,
  Must, vainly shrieking, with the drunken crowd,
  Eyes open, plunge down headlong in the abyss.

  Friedrich Schiller

  Death, Wise, Daughter

  Friedrich Schiller (1861). “Schiller's Complete Works”, p.435

• Joy, thou spark from Heav'n immortal,
  Daughter of Elysium!
  Drunk with fire, toward Heaven advancing
  Goddess, to thy shrine we come.
  Thy sweet magic brings together
  What stern Custom spreads afar;
  All men become brothers
  Where thy happy wing-beats are.

  Friedrich Schiller

  Daughter, Sweet, Brother

  "Ode to Joy" by Friedrich Schiller, (Stanza 1), 1785.

• The voice of our age seems by no means favorable to art, at all events to that kind of art to which my inquiry is directed. The course of events has given a direction to the genius of the time that threatens to remove it continually further from the ideal of art. For art has to leave reality, it has to raise itself bodily above necessity and neediness; for art is the daughter of freedom, and it requires its prescriptions and rules to be furnished by the necessity of spirits and not by that of matter.

  Friedrich Schiller

  Daughter, Art, Mean
