Friedrich Nietzsche
Everything that is profound loves the mask: the profoundest things have a hatred even of figure and likeness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The love of truth has its reward in heaven and even on earth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Superman is the meaning of the earth. Let your will say: The Superman shall be the meaning of the earth!
