"Behold! I am weary of my wisdom,..." - Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche
Behold! I am weary of my wisdom, like the bee that has gathered too much honey; I need hands outstretched to take it from me. I wish to spread it and bestow it, until the wise have once more become joyous in their folly, and the poor happy in their riches.

More on Wisdom
“If you become a helper of hearts, springs of wisdom will flow from your heart.”
“The man who is a pessimist before 48 knows too much; if he is an optimist after it, he knows too little.”
“In living through this great epoch, it is difficult to reconcile oneself to the fact that one belongs to that mad, degenerate species that boasts of its free will. How I wish that somewhere there existed an island for those who are wise and of good will. In such a place even I should be an ardent patriot!”
More on Sharing
“What was done with the seed saved from the India Hemp last summer? It ought, all of it, to have been sewn again; that not only a stock of seed sufficient for my own purposes might have been raised, but to have disseminated the seed to others; as it is more valuable than the common Hemp.”
“You smell a rose through a fence: If two should smell it, what matter?”
“I have been a teacher myself all my life. I have an intense passion to share with people. Our only salvation is in knowledge, in learning.”
