Innermost

Famous quotes containing the word innermost:

“Jealousy is inconsolable because it cannot know the beloved’s innermost thoughts.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

“One receives as reward for much ennui, despondency, boredom—such as a solitude without friends, books, duties, passions must bring with it—those quarter-hours of profoundest contemplation within oneself and nature. He who completely entrenches himself against boredom also entrenches himself against himself: he will never get to drink the strongest refreshing draught from his own innermost fountain.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
