Nietzsche Met

Famous quotes containing the words nietzsche and/or met:

    Just as a waterfall grows slower and more lightly suspended as it plunges down, so the great man of action tends to act with greater calmness than his tempestuous desires prior to the deed would lead one to expect.
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Hidden by old age awhile
    In masker’s cloak and hood,
    Each hating what the other loved,
    Face to face we stood:
    “That I have met with such,” said he,
    “Bodes me little good.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
