Excerpt from Schiller's Wilhelm Tell: Edited With an Introduction and Notes

There is no writer so well known, none so honored among the masses of German people as Friedrich Schiller. Not Luther, nor Goethe, nor anyone has ever got so close to the great, honest German heart as he. His name is a household word with every class. The rich and cultured honor the genius with which he embodied his lofty ideals; the poor and humble love him for his childlike Simplicity and genuineness, for his broad and tender human sympathies, for his noble life - in spite of its sore trials and bitter disappointments, to them an inspiring example of all that is best and noblest in German character. His splendid genius, his sterling manhood, his tireless energy, his unflinching courage command the esteem and admiration of all men.
