"To #master#oneself is the #hardest of all tasks, that which requires the greatest amount of #power: he who can do it has experienced the greatest increase in power” - Nietzsche
"Let humanity perish rather than the principle! This has been the motto of utopians and fanatics throughout the ages. Socialism, interpreted in this way, has become a religion […] which in the nineteenth century is the least revolutionary of all."
Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, 1851, in "Idée générale de la Révolution au XIXe siècle"
