Good quotes

Post by The Reboot » Thu Jun 27, 2019 2:12 pm

This thread is for quotes that inspire. Doesn't matter from who it comes from. I'll start off with:

"Today as always, men fall into two groups: slaves and free men. Whoever does not have two-thirds of his day for himself, is a slave, whatever he may be: a statesman, a businessman, an official, or a scholar." - Nietzche

Is that legit? :lol:

Here's another one I like, from Nietzsche again.

"It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages."

He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.
