If a temple is to be erected, a temple must be destroyed .
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

The lie is a condition of life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
One should never know too precisely whom one has married

Everything about woman is a riddle, and everything about woman has a single solution: that is, pregnancy
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
The end of a melody is not its goal but nonetheless, if the melody had not reached its end it would not have reached its goal either. A parable.
