“I know my fate. One day my name will be associated with the memory of something tremendous — a crisis without equal on earth, the most profound collision of conscience, a decision that was conjured up against everything that had been believed, demanded, hallowed so far. I am no man, I am dynamite.”

“And he who must be a creator of good and evil: truly, he must first be a destroyer and break values.
Thus the greatest evil belongs with the greatest good: that, however, is the creative good.
Let us speak of this, you wisest men, even if it be bad. To be silent is worse; all suppressed truths become poisonous.
And let everything break that is able to be broken by our truths! Many a house is still to be built!”
― Thus Spoke Zarathustra

“The less you eat, drink, buy books, go to the theatre or to balls, or to the pub, and the less you think, love, theorize, sing, paint, fence, etc., the more you will be able to save and the greater will become your treasure which neither moth nor rust will corrupt—your capital. The less you are, the less you express your life, the more you have, the greater is your alienated life and the greater is the saving of your alienated being.”
