Friedrich Nietzsche on philosophy

Blessed are the forgetful: for they get the better even of their blunders.

A few hours of mountain climbing turn a villain and a saint into two rather equal creature. Exhaustion is the shortest way to equality and fraternity, and liberty is added eventually by sleep.

What is happiness? The feeling that power is growing, that resistance is overcome.

The unexamined life is not worth living.

Socrates470–399 BCThe Apology of Socrates (399 BC)

Love, while always forgiving of imperfections and mistakes, can never cease to will their removal.
