some ices flush, calm, and range. Others incidentally suck

in terms of the
immediate and direct. No, on the scale of the immediate and direct women
certainly have the advantage both in delicacy and depth and inwardness,
but as soon as there is a dialectic, women are in the same situation as
people in the southern countries when they have to pronounce a Slavic
word with five or six consonants before a vowel.






A Collection of Writings on Women

from

Friedrich Nietzsche

Actio in distans



When a man stands in the midst of his own noise, in the midst of his own
surf of plans and projects, then he is apt also to see quiet, magical
beings gliding past him and to long for their happiness and seclusion:
women. He almost thinks that his better self dwells there among the
women, and that in these quiet regions even the loudest surf turns into
deathly quiet, and life itself into a dream about life. Yet! Yet! Noble
enthusiast, even on the most beautiful sailboat there is a lot of noise,
and unfortunately much small and petty noise. The magic and the most
powerful effect of women is, in philosophical language, action at a
distance, actio in distans: but this requires first of all and above all
- distance.




Woman and music



Why is it that warm, rainy winds inspire a musical mood and the
inventive pleasure of melodies? Are they not the same winds that fill
the churches and arouse thoughts of love in women?


Skeptics



I am afraid that old women are more skeptical in their most secret heart
of hearts than any man: they consider the superficiality of existence
its essence, and all virtue and profundity
