Friedrich Nietzsche

Now know I well what people sought formerly above all else when they sought Teachers of virtue.  Good sleep they sought for themselves, and poppy-head virtues to promote it!
To all those be-lauded sages of the academic chairs, wisdom was sleep Without dreams:  they knew no higher significance of life.
Even at present, to be sure, there are some like this preacher of virtue, and not always so honorable:  but their time is past. 
And not much longer do they stand:  there they already lie.
Blessed are those drowsy ones:  for they shall soon nod to sleep.--Thus spoke Zarathustra.

"What is great in man is that he is a bridge and not a goal."

"If my virtue be a dancers virtue
And if I have often sprung with both feet
    into golden-emerald rapture
And if it be an Alpha and Omega
    that everything heavy shall become light
Every body a dancer
And every Spirit a bird:
Verily, that is my Alpha and Omega"

 I would believe only in a God that knows how to dance

Dancing in all its forms cannot be excluded from the curriculum of all noble education; dancing with the feet,
with ideas, with words, and, need I add that one must also be able to dance with the pen?

In the end one loves one's desire and not what is desired.

Faith makes blessed.  Consequently it lies.

Madness is rare in individuals--but in groups, parties, nations, and ages it is the rule.

"A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything."

"Christianity makes suffering contagious."
