Friedrich Nietzsche

He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.

To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.

Faith: not wanting to know what is true.

Enduring habits I hate…. Yes, at the very bottom of my soul I feel grateful to all my misery and bouts of sickness and everything about me that is imperfect, because this sort of thing leaves me with a hundred backdoors through which I can escape from enduring habits.

In heaven all the interesting people are missing.

He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.

This above all: to thine own self be true.

It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to, than I have ever known.

You are mine, and that means I am on your side even when no one else is.

Life on the road is murder. It’s as though life begins and ends with your horn in your mouth.

And when they played they really played. And when they worked they really worked.

People living deeply have no fear of death.

I’m constantly reemerging in my life.

Certain flaws are necessary for the whole. It would seem strange if old friends lacked certain quirks.

A committee can make a decision that is dumber than any of its members.

To do more for the world than the world does for you – that is success.

I didn’t just come in on a load of turnips!

Being good in business is the most fascinating kind of art. Making money is art and working is art and good business is the best art.

They ask me how I love you and I say in pages, in novels, in volumes. I love you like my favorite story, the one that I wake up to every day and watch unfold. And I don’t know how it ends, but I know your name is already written in the chapters of my life that I have yet to live.

I beg you take courage; the brave soul can mend even disaster.

I can visualize the time when almost every family will have a small plane in their back yard.
