    “For what is your friend that you should seek him with hours to kill?

    Seek him always with hours to live.

    For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.”

It's worth being cold for that.”

    Friedrich Nietzsche
    “There is a point in the history of society when it becomes so pathologically soft and tender that among other things it sides even with those who harm it, criminals, and does this quite seriously and honestly. Punishing somehow seems unfair to it, and it is certain that imagining "punishment" and "being supposed to punish" hurts it, arouses fear in it. "Is it not enough to render him undangerous? Why still punish?
    Punishing itself is terrible." With this question, herd morality, the morality of timidity, draws its ultimate consequence.”
    Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil
