What does not destroy me, makes me stronger.
Art is essentially the affirmation, the blessing, and the deification of existence.
That roguish and cheerful vice, politeness.
The love of truth has its reward in heaven and even on earth.
Like the creatures of the forest and the sea, I love To lose myself for a while.
I love him who is ashamed when the dice fall in his favour, and who then asketh: "Am I a dishonest player?" - for he is willing to succumb.
