Friedrich Nietzsche Quotes

Books come at my call and return when I desire them; they are never out of humor and they answer all my questions with readiness.

Some there are who prepare my soul to suffer everything, to desire nothing, and to become thoroughly acquainted with itself. In a word, they open the door to all the arts and sciences.
