“The grand style arises when beauty wins a victory over the monstrous.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
“I fly in dreams, I know it is my privilege, I do not recall a single situation in dreams when I was unable to fly. To execute every sort of curve and angle with a light impulse, a flying mathematicsthat is so distinct a happiness that it has permanently suffused my basic sense of happiness.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
“Methoughts a legion of foul fiends
Environed me, and howled in mine ears
Such hideous cries that with the very noise
I trembling waked, and for a season after
Could not believe but that I was in hell,
Such terrible impression made my dream.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
