Friedrich Nietzsche
i have never pondered over questions that are not questions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Look not into the sun! Even the moon is too bright for your nocturnal eyes!
Friedrich Nietzsche
A subject for a great poet would be God's boredom after the seventh day of creation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
