Falls Densely

Famous quotes containing the words falls and/or densely:

    To get into just those situations where sham virtues will not suffice, but rather where, as with the ropedancer on his rope, one either falls or stands—or gets down.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    I keep having the same experience and keep resisting it every time. I do not want to believe it although it is palpable: the great majority of people lacks an intellectual conscience. Indeed, it has often seemed to me as if anyone calling for an intellectual conscience were as lonely in the most densely populated cities as if he were in a desert.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
