The Birth of Tragedy/Seventy-five Aphorisms/The Anti-Christ Quotes

“Convictions are prisons.”
― Friedrich Nietzche, The Birth of Tragedy/Seventy-five Aphorisms/The Anti-Christ

“Euripides speculated quite differently. The effect of tragedy never depended on epic suspense, on the fascinating uncertainty as to what is to happen now and afterwards: but rather on the great rhetoro-lyric scenes in which the passion and dialectics of the chief hero swelled to a broad and mighty stream. Everything was arranged for pathos, not for action: and whatever was not arranged for pathos was regarded as objectionable.”
― Friedrich Nietzsche, The Birth of Tragedy/Seventy-five Aphorisms/The Anti-Christ
