Friedrich NietzscheFrom whatever you wish to know and measure you must take your leave, at least for a time. Only when you have left the town can yousee how high its towers rise above the houses.
Friedrich NietzscheAt every step one has to wrestle for truth; one has to surrender for it almost everything to which the heart, to which our love, our trust in life, cling otherwise.

That one is severe against one's heart...that one makes of every Yes and No a matter of conscience.
