We can cure physical diseases with medicine, but the only cure for loneliness, despair, and hopelessness is love. There are many in the world who are dying for a piece of bread, but there are many more dying for a little love.

I want to learn more and more to see as beautiful what is necessary in things; then I shall be one of those who makes things beautiful. Amor fati: let that be my love henceforth!

What do I care about the purring of one who cannot love, like the cat?

There is not enough love and goodness in the world to permit giving any of it away to imaginary beings.

It is true: we love life, not because we are used to living, but because we are used to loving.

Whatever is done for love always occurs beyond good and evil.
