What if some day or night, a demon came to you, into your loneliest loneliness, and said to you:
“This life as you now live and have lived it,
You will have to live once more and innumerable times more.”
Would you not throw yourself down, gnash your teeth, and curse the demon who spoke thus?
Or had you once experienced the tremendous moment when you would have answered him:
You are a god, and I have never heard anything more divine.
