“The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.”

He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.

He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster.

And we should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once.

One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.

What is done out of love always takes place beyond good and evil.

The higher we soar, the smaller we appear to those who cannot fly.

To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.

In individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule.
