Question

Title says it all. Thanks all and take care, The 100 words does not include the quote for which you like the most.

Answer 1

Nietzsche, hands down. I always considered Thoreau a bit too... fruity for my tastes. I appreciate Nietzshe in that he had a sense of humor along with his irony and darkness, which gives him infinite humanity despite his immortalization.

"No price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself. "

"Let us beware of saying that death is the opposite of life. The living being is only a species of the dead, and a very rare species. "

"Necessity is not an established fact, but an interpretation."
