“You must have chaos within you to give birth to a dancing star.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“The only dance masters I could have were Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Walt Whitman and Nietzsche.”
Isadora Duncan
“What if a demon were to creep after you one night, in your loneliest loneliness, and say, 'This life which you live must be lived by you once again and innumerable times more; and every pain and joy and thought and sigh must come again to you, all in the same sequence. The eternal hourglass will again and again be turned and you with it, dust of the dust!' Would you throw yourself down and gnash your teeth and curse that demon? Or would you answer, 'Never have I heard anything more divine'?”
“In fact, if Christ himself stood in my way, I, like Nietzsche, would not hesitate to squish him like a worm”
Ernesto 'Che' Guevara
“Nietzsche was stupid and abnormal.”
Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy
“Wherefore, Nietzsche concluded that the chief characteristic of a moral system was its tendency to perpetuate itself unchanged, and to destroy all who questioned it or denied it”
Henry Louis Mencken
“Deep is the well of truth and long does it take to know what has fallen into its depths”
