Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche

Man is no longer an artist, he has become a work of art.

Man is no longer an artist, he has become a work of art.

Summary

This provocative quote by Friedrich Nietzsche emphasizes the transformation of humanity from being creators of art to becoming masterpieces themselves. It suggests that individuals have evolved to focus on self-expression, self-improvement, and the cultivation of their own uniqueness as a form of artistry. It questions the traditional role of humans as creators and highlights the shift towards self-creation, where individuals become the living embodiment of their own artistic vision. This observation speaks to the idea that humans have the potential to continuously evolve and refine themselves, turning their existence into a masterpiece.

George Washington intended this to be a Federal city, and it is a Federal city, and it tingles down to the feet of every man, whether he comes from Washington State, or Los Angeles, or Texas, when he comes and walks these city streets and begins to feel that this is my city; I own a part of this Capital, and I envy for the time being those who are able to spend their time here. I quite admit that there are defects in the system of government by which Congress is bound to look after the government of the District of Columbia. It could not be otherwise under such a system, but I submit to the judgment of history that the result vindicates the foresight of the fathers.
