Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche

The kingdom of Heaven is a condition of the heart - not something that comes upon the earth or after death.

The kingdom of Heaven is a condition of the heart - not some

Summary

This quote emphasizes that the concept of the kingdom of Heaven is not simply a physical place or a reward in the afterlife. Instead, it implies that Heaven is a state of being that resides within one's heart. It highlights the importance of cultivating inner qualities such as love, compassion, and peace to experience the essence of Heaven here and now, rather than considering it as an external destination. The quote encourages individuals to focus on transforming their internal state and nurturing a spiritual connection, rather than searching for Heaven in external circumstances or future events.

If a man we don't know phones us up one day and talks a little, makes no suggestions, says nothing special, but nevertheless pays us the kind of attention we rarely receive, we're quite capable of going to bed with him that night, feeling relatively in love.
