Otherwise, we can say anything bad about a man, but we must know how to restore his vanity in the way we say it. | Friedrich Nietzsche | Human, All Too Human: Section Four: From the Soul of Artists and Writers - Aphorism #190 | 124 | 13 years, 8 months ago | | | 191 Limit of honesty. Even the most honest writer lets slip a word too many when he wants to round off a period. | Friedrich Nietzsche | Human, All Too Human: Section Four: From the Soul of Artists and Writers - Aphorism #191 | 120 | 13 years, 8 months ago | | | 192 The best author. The best author will be the one who is ashamed to become a writer.20
