Friedrich Nietzsche

And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.

If you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.

Sometimes people don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusions destroyed.

In heaven, all the interesting people are missing.

The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.

The man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends.

The snake which cannot cast its skin has to die. As well the minds which are prevented from changing their opinions; they cease to be mind.

― Friedrich Nietzsche
