Truth World Longing

More From Friedrich Nietzsche

It is not given to man to know the whole truth. his duty lies in living up to the truth as he sees it, and in doing so, to resort to the purest means, i.e., to non-violence. god alone knows absolute truth. therefore, i have often said, truth is god. it follows that man, a finite being, cannot know absolute truth. nobody in this world possesses absolute truth. this is god's attribute alone. relative truth is all we know. therefore, we can only follow the truth as we see it. such pursuit of truth cannot lead anyone astray.

The entire object of true education is to make people not merely do the right things, but enjoy the right things — not merely industrious, but to love industry — not merely learned, but to love knowledge — not merely pure, but to love purity — not merely just, but to hunger and thirst after justice.

The soul must long for god in order to be set aflame by god's love; but if the soul cannot yet feel the longing, then it must long for the longing. to long for the longing is also from god.

The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing — to reach the mountain, to find the place where all the beauty came from — my country, the place where i ought to have been born. do you think it all meant nothing, all the longing? the longing for home? for indeed it now feels not like going, but like going back.

For paradise we long. for perfection we were made...this longing is the source of the hunger and dissatisfaction that mark our lives...this longing makes our loves and friendships possible, and so very unsatisfactory. the hunger is for...nothing less than perfect communion with the...one in whom all the fragments of our scattered existence come together...we must not stifle this longing. it is a holy dissatisfaction. such dissatisfaction is not a sickness to be healed, but the seed of a promise to be fulfilled...the only death to fear is the death of settling for something less.
Perfect Long Promise
Though the world does not change with a change of paradigm, the scientist afterward works in a different world... i am convinced that we must learn to make sense of statements that at least resemble these. what occurs during a scientific revolution is not fully reducible to a re-interpretation of individual and stable data. in the first place, the data are not unequivocally stable.
