FRIEDRICH SCHILLER QUOTES
|
|
- 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.
