If thou art something bring thy soul and interchange with mine. - Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller.
Eternity gives nothing back of what one leaves out of the minutes.
Illusion is brief, but repentance is long.
Chains of iron or of silk-both are chains.
The May of life blooms once and never again.
A noble soul spreads even over a face in which the architectonic beauty is wanting an irresistible grace, and a often even triumphs over the natural disfavor.
