“Your eyes will see the king in his beauty and the land that stretches afar.” 
  Isaiah 33:11
  
  
  “The value not expects the number of years.” Corneille
  
  
   
  
  Don Carlos 
  the principal actor of Schiller’s novel was talking with his father, the king 
  Phillp II of 
  Spain, 
  telling him a personal preoccupation.  Despite the fact he was a prince, even 
  he was having a kingdom at his legs, and he was enjoying all the facilities, 
  richesness, the luxury, and the education of a royal house, the young man was 
  feeling that he is not satisfied because of a single point.  He told his 
  father:” 23 years and I did nothing for my salvation!” Probably Schiller was 
  thinking in the eternity given by the history books…
  
  I don’t know 
  your age, but if till present you did nothing for your salvation, it is the 
  time to seriously think to this point. That would be a great shame to fail the 
  chance to meet HIM!
