Friedrich Nietzsche
Not doubt, certainty is what drives one insane.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Christians call it faith ... I call it the herd.

Once blasphemy again God was the greatest blasphemy but God died, and thereupon those blasphemers died too.
Friedrich Nietzsche
