Thus Spoke Zarathustra

Ah, where in the world has there been greater folly than among the pitying? And what in the world has caused more suffering than the folly of the pitying?

Woe to all lovers who do not have a height that is above their pity!

Thus spoke the devil to me once: “God too has his hell: it is his love of man.”

And most recently I heard him speak this word: “God is dead: God died of his pity for man.”

—<em>Zarathustra, “On the Pitying”</em>
