‘We live, in fact, in a world starved for solitude, silence, and private: and therefore starved for meditation and true friendship’
— C.S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory
‘The man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends’
— Friedrich Nietzsche
Thus spoke Zarathustra is one of my favorite books.
“In your friend you should possess your best enemy. Your heart should feel closest to him when you oppose him.” — Friedrich Nietzsche
Interesting that even C.S. Lewis had lack of quiet on his mind; his was a time we look back on as being quiet...
