"We should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once. And we should call every truth false which was not accompanied by at least one laugh"
- Friedrich Nietzsche
About this Quote
This quote by Friedrich Nietzsche highlights the value of joy and laughter in our lives. He recommends that if we go through a day without permitting ourselves to let loose and dance, we have actually wasted that day. Additionally, he argues that a reality can not be completely valued or accepted unless it is complemented by laughter. Basically, Nietzsche is advising us to have fun and not take life too seriously.

"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character"
