C.G.Jung

The devs are the shining gods of the day, of the clear blue sky, of things visible in the daylight, while Asura is a god within, a god of chiefly spiritual and moral character.

When you understand a thing, you say: “I see”—and in order to see you need light.

he says: “and Zarathustra passed by me,”

I love the great despisers, because they are the great adorers, and arrows of longing for the other shore.

One should cease the foolishness of thinking that all people are the same and have the same creed. It is absolutely impossible. We are converting negroes for their own destruction, for example. It would be better to go to Africa and shoot them down than to make them degenerate by becoming Christians.

“What is love? What is creation? What is longing? What is a star?”—so asketh the last man and blinketh.

“And now do they look at me and laugh: and while they laugh they hate me too. There is ice in their laughter.”

Nothing is more characteristic and symptomatic in this respect than the gulf that has opened out between faith and knowledge.
