Famous quotes containing the words signs and/or symptoms:

    All signs of superhuman nature appear in man as illness or insanity.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    The human condition is such that pain and effort are not just symptoms which can be removed without changing life itself; they are the modes in which life itself, together with the necessity to which it is bound, makes itself felt. For mortals, the “easy life of the gods” would be a lifeless life.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
