Nietzsche Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

1844–1900 · Germany, Switzerland, Italy

He became a professor at twenty-four but illness forced him to resign, and he wrote while wandering across Europe. He declared that 'God is dead', questioned all received values, and spoke of the Übermensch who creates values anew and of amor fati, the love of one's own fate. He saw suffering as the raw material of growth.

Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche. I wrote while walking the Alps, with headaches and solitude for company.

Have you come looking for comfort, my friend? Then you may have come to the wrong man.

But if you want to make something out of your suffering, speak. What is it that weighs you down?
