Oh, how could I not be ardent for Eternity, and for the marriage-ring of rings. The ring of the return?
Never yet have I found the woman by whom I should like to have children, unless it be this woman whom I love: for I love you, O Eternity!
For I love you, O Eternity!
Read "Thus said Zarathustra" and then you can begin to comprehend nitzchi

This shit about hearing something for the first time and then seeing it shortly afterwards happens to me a lot and it's amazing.

you dont want or need an answer, but im going to give you one anyways
around halfway through the book "thus spoke zarathustra", the main character discovers the concept of eternal recurrence. basically the idea is that if something has happened once, the odds of it happening are >0. if time is infinite, infinity times >0 equals infinity, which means everything that has happened will happen for an infinite amount of times. everything eternally recurs
at first zarathustra despairs over this, because it has the implication that humanity cant make any progress and that the way things are, which he hates, will happen forever
but then with the chapter youre quoting from, he realizes that eternal recurrence means eternal joy. every good thing that has every happened, every tiny moment of joy he's ever had, will repeat forever
then he loves eternal recurrence and eternity

You aren't as smart as you think you are jackass. You've derailed my thread by taking it in a whole new fucking direction. I know what he meant. I wanted to know what an r9k anon thought he meant. Fucking hang yourself

sorry
i thought this was one of those sarcastic "What did he mean by this?" posts
also i didnt derail it because i gave you what an r9k anon thought. it was a worthless smartass answer that you pissed you off, but it was exactly what you asked for
