Ten truths must you find during the day; otherwise will you seek truth during the night, and your soul will have been hungry.

Seek truth and knowledge daily to nourish your soul.
Friedrich Nietzsche emphasizes the importance of discovering truths throughout each day.

Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man.
Friedrich NietzscheRead
Watch them clamber, these swift monkeys! They clamber over one another and thus drag one another into the mud and the depth. They all want to get to the throne: that is their madness β as if happiness sat on the throne. Often, mud sits on the throne β and often the throne also on mud. Mad they all appear to me, clambering monkeys and overardent. Foul smells their idol, the cold monster: foul, they smell to me altogether, these idolators.
