Zwei sind der Wege, auf welchen der Mensch zur Tugend emporstrebt, Schließt sich der eine dir zu, thut sich der andre dir auf. Handelnd erringt der Glückliche sie, [der Leidende duldend]1. Wohl ihm, den sein Geschick liebend auf beiden geführt.
Confirmed with Gedichte von Friederich Schiller, Erster Theil, Leipzig, 1800, bey Siegfried Lebrecht Crusius, page 206.

Hi ha dos camins en els que l’home malda vers la virtut, si un d’ells se’t tanca, se t’obre l’altre. L’afortunat l’aconsegueix actuant, el que pateix suportant. Feliç aquell que el destí l’ha conduït vers els dos camins.
