[dailynietzsche]

“To suffer from one’s environment, to defend oneself with involuntary mistrust against its love, to learn silence, and to create for oneself nooks and undiscoverable solitudes for moments of relief, until one is finally strong enough to say, ‘what do I have to do with you?’ and to go one’s own way.”

—F. Nietzsche, The Will to Power, §970 (edited excerpt).
