"Those that achieve anything that looks beyond..." - Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche

“A reader is doubly guilty of bad manners against an author when he praises his second book at the expense of his first (or vice versa) and then expects the author to be grateful for what he has done.”

“We possess art lest we perish of the truth.”

“The most unequivocal sign of contempt for man is to regard everybody merely as a means to one's own ends, or of no account whatever.”

“We are really doing our very best. There are no doubt many mistakes and shortcomings. A lot of things are done none too well. Some things that ought to be done have not yet been done...[But Britain's effort has] justly commanded the wonder and admiration of every friendly nation in the world.”

“What you have inherited from your fathers, earn over again for yourselves, or it will not be yours.”

“In order to achieve goals you have not achieved before you have to become someone you haven't been before.”

“Talent borrows, genius steals!”

“Courage is not having the strength to go on, it is going on when you don't have the strength. Industry and determination can do anything that genius and advantage can do and many things that they cannot.”

“The young man reveres men of genius, because, to speak truly, they are more himself than he is.”
