You have everything but one thing: madness. A man needs a little madness or else - he never dares cut the rope and be free. - Nikos Kazantzakis

A man needs a little madness, or else... he never dares cut the rope and be free.

A person needs a little madness, or else they never dare cut the rope and be free.

The truth is that we all are one, that all of us together create god, that god is not man's ancestor, but his descendant.

May he be cursed on earth who gives his trust to virtue,
that bankrupt crone who takes our life's pure gold and gives
but bad receipts for payment in the lower world.
Ah, passers-by that stroll, travelers that come and go,
all that I had, I placed on virtue, and lost the game!

Ό,τι δεν συνέβη ποτέ, είναι ό,τι δεν ποθήσαμε αρκετά.
