"The secret of reaping the greatest fruitfulness..." - Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche

“Those who are bent on revolutionizing society may be divided into those who seek something for themselves thereby and those who seek something for their children and grandchildren.”

“The desire to annoy no one, to harm no one, can equally well be the sign of a just as of an anxious disposition.”

“Mathematics would certainly have not come into existence if one had known from the beginning that there was in nature no exactly straight line, no actual circle, no absolute magnitude.”

“Judge not, before you judge yourself.Judge not, if you're not ready for judgment.The Road of life is rocky and you may stumble too,so while you talk about me, someone else is judging you.”

“Normally, the sciences distance themselves from life and the return to it via a detour.”

“We love life, not because we are used to living but because we are used to loving.”

“Something might be true while being harmful and dangerous in the highest degree. Indeed, it might be a basic characteristic of existence that those who know it completely would perish, in which case the strength of a spirit should be measured according to how much of the 'truth' one could still barely endure- or to put it more clearly, to what degree one would require it to be thinned down, shrouded, sweetened, blunted, falsified.”

“Excessive partiality for one foreign nation and excessive dislike of another cause those whom they actuate to see danger only on one side, and serve to veil and even second the arts of influence on the other. Real patriots who may resist the intrigues of the favorite are liable to become suspected and odious, while its tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the people, to surrender their interests.”

“If you become involved with me, you will be throwing yourself into the abyss.”
