Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
To die proudly when it is no longer possible to live proudly. Death of one's own free choice, death at the proper time, with a clear head and with joyfulness, consummated in the midst of children and witnesses: so that an actual leave-taking is possible while he who is leaving is still there.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

This deed is still more distant from them than the most distant stars - and yet they have done it themselves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A thing can only live through a pious illusion.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
