The wheel and the brake have different duties, but also one in common: to hurt one another.
Friedrich NietzscheThis is the fundamental idea of culture, insofar as it sets but one task for each of us: to further the production of the philosopher, of the artist, and of the saint within us and outside us, and thereby to work at the consummation of nature.
Friedrich NietzscheLife is fountain of joy; but where the rabble also gather to drink, all wells are poisoned.
Friedrich NietzscheThe strong individual loves the earth so much he lusts for recurrence. He can smile in the face of the most terrible thought: meaningless, aimless existence recurring eternally. The second characteristic of such a man is that he has the strength to recognize - and to live with the recognition - that the world is valueless in itself and that all values are human ones. He creates himself by fashioning his own values; he has the pride to live by the values he wills.
