“أن يقبل المرء الناس برحابة صدر، وأن يجعل قلبه بيتا مفتوحا للجميع، فذلك كرم، لكنه يظل مجرد كرم. إنما تُعرف القلوب الأكثر سعةً لكرمِ الضيافة من نوافذها الكثيرة المغلقة وستائرها المسحوبة: إنها تدع أفضل غرفها شاغرة. لمَ يا ترى؟ لأنها تنتظر ضيوفا لا يكون على المرء أن "يتقبله برحابة صدر”
― فريدريك نيتشه, Twilight of the Idols

“For truth to tell, 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 pen- that one must learn how to write”
― Friedrich Nietzsche, Twilight of the Idols

“I have one problem, I don’t hate people. They disgust me and I want to get away from them. I do not have hatred. I have an escape mechanism.”
― Charles Bukowski

“For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can't readily accept the God formula, the big answers don't remain stone-written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a command nor faith a dictum. I am my own god. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.”
― Charles Bukowski
