Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche

One should part from life as Odysseus parted from Nausicaa: with a blessing rather than in love


One should part from life as Odysseus parted from Nausicaa:

Summary

This quote suggests that one should approach the end of life with a sense of acceptance and appreciation, rather than clinging to attachments or worldly desires. Similar to how Odysseus left Nausicaa, a symbol of his past desires and temptations, with a farewell blessing instead of remaining in love with her, one should let go gracefully and embrace the next phase of existence. It emphasizes the idea of detaching oneself from worldly attachments and finding contentment in the transience of human existence.
