"It is my ambition to say in ten sentences what others say in a whole book"
- Friedrich Nietzsche
About this Quote
Friedrich Nietzsche is revealing his desire to communicate his ideas in a succinct and impactful manner. He believes that he can communicate the very same amount of details and understanding as someone who writes an entire book in simply 10 sentences. This shows his confidence in his writing abilities and his ridicule for redundancy and unneeded length in writing.
