Fame is nothing but the sum of all the misunderstandings that cluster around a new name.

Genuine – that is what I call him who goes into godforsaken deserts and has broken his venerating heart.
In the yellow sand and burned by the sun, perhaps he blinks thirstily at the islands filled with springs where living creatures rest beneath shady trees.
But his thirst does not persuade him to become like these comfortable creatures: for where there are oases there are also idols.
Hungered, violent, solitary, godless: that is how the lion-will wants to be.
Free from the happiness of serfs, redeemed from gods and worship, fearless and fearful, great and solitary: that is how the will of the genuine man is.
- Thus Spoke Zarathustra

Something unquenched, unquenchable, is in me, that wants to speak out. A craving for love is in me, that itself speaks the language of love.

He who cannot obey himself will be commanded. That is the nature of living creatures.
But this is the third thing I heard: that commanding is more difficult than obeying. And not only because the commander bears the burden of all who obey, and that this burden can easily crush him.
Even when he commands himself: then also must he make amends for his commanding. He must become judge and avenger and victim of his own law.

داگلب بالتلي ولكيت هاي:
أعظم شعور تمنحه للآخر الأمان ، ثمَ القوة .. أن يشعر في أعماقه أن الحياة لا تستطيع هزيمته وأنتَ معه.

وبنفس الوقت تذكرت مقولة إدكار آلان بو اللي طشت بكل مكان:
Tell me every terrible thing you
ever did, and let me love you
anyway.

People no longer believe 'really' in religion, even if they formally do; the concept of God does not offer the same psychological relief as it used to do before.
That's why they try to satisfy their psychological needs via romantic love; they want their lovers to forgive their sins, grant them strength, and reward them with heaven (through a kiss, or a wild night). And since God cannot guide them anymore, they look for guidance through feelings and emotion.
God has been, in a very non-elegant way, replaced by heartwarming movies, and romantic songs. Just look at most romantic quotes and you'll find remnants of religious prayers in them.

Poor humans...
They have killed God, and now believe that they themselves, through love and knowledge, can be baptized anew as gods.
