Some Nietzsche for you
After coming into contact with a religious man I always feel I must wash my hands.
Ah, women. They make the highs higher and the lows more frequent.
And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.
Character is determined more by the lack of certain experiences than by those one has had.
Extreme positions are not succeeded by moderate ones, but by contrary extreme positions.

Thank you Luke. I think I needed that. Paul.
"Character is determined more by the lack of certain experiences than by those one has had." A corker. I don't think I'd ever experienced true gloom until I got to Berlin. It ain't fun, of course, but I'm so glad to have had it. Fantastically eye-opening. And certainly character-changing.
