Friedrich Nietzsche, 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"

"Without music, life would be a mistake."

"The desire for a strong faith is not the proof of a strong faith, rather the opposite. If one has it one may permit oneself the beautiful luxury of skepticism: one is secure enough, fixed enough for it."

"One must reach out and try to grasp this astonishing finesse, that the value of lif cannot be estimated."

"Without music, life would be a mistake."
