Nietzsche is a treasure cove of insights and wisdom:
"Are you co-conspirators in the current folly of nations, who want above all to produce as much possible and to be as rich as possible? It would be your affair to present them with the counter-calculation: what vast sums of inner worth are thrown away for such an external goal. But where is your inner worth when you no longer know what it means to breathe freely?"
"The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently."
“How good bad music and bad reasons sound when one marches against an enemy!”
"The snake that cannot shed its skin perishes. So do the spirits who are prevented from changing their opinions; they cease to be spirits."
