Our highest insights must –and should!–

sound like stupidities, or possibly crimes,

when they come without permission to

people whose ears have no affinity for

them and were not predestined for them.

FRIEDRICH NIETZSCHE

Scholars are those who have read in books; but

thinkers, geniuses, enlighteners of the world,

and benefactors of the human race, are those

who have directly read in the book of the world.

ARTHUR SCHOPENHAUER
