In March of 1995 Mark Moran of Wyoming, Ontario began publishing Daytripping, a unique bi-monthly travel guide and directory to the wonders of Southwestern Ontario. Mark fills his paper with small town tourism information and advertisements, and nuggets of information that need to be repurposed, including The Wisdom of Friedrich Nietzsche, reprinted here.
(Portrait of Friedrich Nietzsche by Edvard Munch)
- All truly great thoughts are conceived by walking.
- We should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once. And we should call every truth false which was not accompanied by at least one laugh.
- Glance into the world just as though time were gone: and everything crooked will become straight to you.
- He who cannot give anything cannot feel anything either.
- He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.
- He who would learn to fly one day must first learn to stand and walk and run and climb and dance; one cannot fly into flying.
- In every real man a child is hidden that wants to play.
- One ought to hold on to one's heart; for if one lets it go, one soon loses control of the head too.
- All things are subject to interpretation. Whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth.
- Art is the proper task of life.
