Friedrich Nietzsche

I assess the power of a will by how much resistance, pain, torture it endures and knows how to turn to its advantage.

He who cannot give anything away cannot feel anything either.

The desire to annoy no one, to harm no one, can equally well be the sign of a just as of an anxious disposition.

I just had an idea that went right over my head.

In a small spacecraft, it was hard for the other two guys to sleep when the on-duty man was talking to Mission Control regularly.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.
