"He who fights monsters should look into it that he himself does not become a monster!. When you gaze long into the Abyss, the Abyss also gazes into you!."

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I think Nietzsche should have followed his own advice!. It seems he was arrested once for trying to kiss a horse, and eventually went nuts!. People have blamed this on syphilis, but I think it's a direct result of asking too large questions, studying humanity and its inconsistencies too much, and disappearing irrevocably up his own bumhole as a result!. He ended up in the Abyss he himself studied and talked about!.

I am certainly in an abyss at the moment!. I am trying to reconcile religious differences between myself and the person I want to marry, and my investigations of those religions, the importance of love, the relativity of truth, and many sad, sad discoveries about humankind that I would not have otherwise made have isolated me, depressed me, sucked the energy completely out of me!. Ignorance was bliss!. I clearly see myself in every "monster" I try to fight!. I am a confirmed citizen of the "abyss" that I initially condemned and externalised!. What's a person to do!?
