Carlyle, A Man Of Strong Words And

When Zarathustra Was Alone . . . He Said To His Heart: "could It Be Possible! This Old Saint In The Forest Hath Not Yet Heard Of It, That God Is Dead!"

Without The Errors Involved In The Assumptions Of Ethics, Man Would Have Remained An Animal. Thus Has He Taken Himself As Something Higher And Imposed Rigid Laws Upon Himself.

The Significance Of Language For The Evolution Of Culture Lies In This, That Mankind Set Up In Language A Separate World Beside The Other World, A Place It Took To Be So Firmly Set That, Standing Upon It, It Could Lift The Rest Of The World Off Its Hinges And Make Itself Master Of It. To The Extent That Man Has For Long Ages Believed In The Concepts And Names Of Things As In Aeternae Veritates He Has Appropriated To Himself That Pride By Which He Raised Himself Above The Animal: He Really Thought That In Language He Possessed Knowledge Of The World.

The Greatest Giver Of Alms Is Cowardice.

Man Is Something That Is To Be Surpassed.
