Friedrich Nietzsche
“As soon as you feel yourself against me you have ceased to understand my position and consequently my arguments! You have to be the victim of the same passion!

I want to awaken the greatest mistrust of myself: I speak only of things I have experienced and do not offer only events in the head.

One must want to experience the great problems with one’s body and one’s soul.

I have at all times written my writings with my whole heart and soul: I do not know what purely intellectual problems are.

You know these things as thoughts, but your thoughts are not your experiences, they are an echo and after-effect of your experiences: as when your room trembles when a carriage goes past. I however am sitting in the carriage, and often I am the carriage itself.”
Friedrich Nietzsche

Yukio Mishima
“True beauty is something that attacks, overpowers, robs, and finally destroys.”
