  13. Nietzsche | Ready must thou be to burn thyself in thine own flame; how couldst thou become new if thou have not first become ashes!

  14. Nietzsche | I despise thy contempt; and when thou warnedst me—why didst thou not warn thyself? / Where one can no longer love, there should one—PASS BY!

  15. Nietzsche | God is dead: of his pity for man hath God died / For that old God liveth no more: he is indeed dead

  16. Nietzsche | ‘Was THAT—life?’ will I say unto death. ‘Well! Once more!’
