Those Things For Which We Find Words,

Noble And Wise Men Once Believed In The Music Of The Spheres: Noble And Wise Men Still Continue To Believe In The "moral Significance Of Existence." But One Day Even This Sphere-music Will No Longer Be Audible To Them! They Will Wake Up And Take Note That Their Ears Were Dreaming.

One Who Is Publicly Honest About Himself Ends Up By Priding Himself Somewhat On This Honesty: For He Knows Only Too Well Why He Is Honest-for The Same Reasons Another Person Prefers Illusion And Dissimulation.

Insects Sting, Not From Malice, But Because They Want To Live. It Is The Same With Critics; They Desire Our Blood Not Our Pain.

We, However, Want To Become Those We Are--human Beings Who Are New, Unique, Incomparable, Who Give Themselves Laws, Who Create Themselves. To That End We Must Become The Best Learners And Discoverers Of Everything That Is Lawful And Necessary In The World: We Must Become Physicists In Order To Be Able To Be Creators In This Sense--while Hitherto All Valuations And Ideals Have Been Based On Ignorance Of Physics Or Were Constructed So As To Contradict It. Therefore: Long Live Physics! And Even More So That Which Compels Us To Turn To Physics--our Honesty!

There Exists Above The "productive" Man A Yet Higher Species.
