We "conserve" nothing; neither do we want to return to any past periods; we are not by any means "liberal"; we do not work for "progress"; we do not need to plug up our ears against the sirens who in the market place sing of the future: their song about "equal rights," "a free society," "no more masters and no servants" has no allure for us.
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (15 October 1844 – 25 August 1900) was a German philosopher, cultural critic, composer, poet, writer, and philologist whose work has exerted a profound influence on modern intellectual history. His critiques of contemporary culture, religion, and philosophy centered on a basic question regarding the foundation of values and morality.

Main deficiency of active people. Active men are usually lacking in higher activity--I mean individual activity. They are active as officials, businessmen, scholars, that is, as generic beings, but not as quite particular, single and unique men. In this respect they are lazy.
ترنون بأعينكم إلى الأعالي وأنتم تطالبون العُلى، وأنظر إلى الأسفل لأنني في الأعالي من منكم باستطاعته أن يضحك ويكون في الوقت نفسه ساميًا؟
الذي يصعد إلى الجبال الشواهق يضحك من كل مآسي المسرح، ومآسي الحياة
