“Dreams. ― We have no dreams at all or interesting ones. We should learn to be awake the same way ― not at all or in an interesting manner.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche, On the Genealogy of Morals

“We are unknown to ourselves, we knowers, and with good reason. We have never looked at ourselves.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche, On the Genealogy of Morals

“Read from a distant star the majuscule script of our earthly existence would perhaps tempt one to conclude that the earth is the ascetic planet par excellence, a nook of discontented, arrogant, and repulsive creatures who could not get rid of a deep displeasure with themselves, with the earth, with all life and who caused themselves as much pain as possible out of pleasure in causing pain:―probably their only pleasure.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche, On the Genealogy of Morals

“One repays a teacher badly if one always remains nothing but a pupil.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra
