Playing Superman

Famous quotes containing the words playing and/or superman:

“While you’re playing cards with a regular guy or having a bite to eat with him, he seems a peaceable, good-humoured and not entirely dense person. But just begin a conversation with him about something inedible, politics or science, for instance, and he ends up in a deadend or starts in on such an obtuse and base philosophy that you can only wave your hand and leave.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

““All the gods are dead: now we want the superman to live”Mon that great noon, let this be our last will.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
