Analysis of Beauteous Individuality
Friedrich Schiller 1759 (Marbach am Neckar) – 1805 (Weimar)
Thou in truth shouldst be one, yet not with the whole shouldst thou be so.
'Tis through the reason thou'rt one,--art so with it through the heart.
Voice of the whole is thy reason, but thou thine own heart must be ever;
If in thy heart reason dwells evermore, happy art thou.
