Astu,

What is unpleasant and a strain on my modesty is that fundamentally every name in history is myself. And with the children I have put into the world matters stand thus: I ponder, with a certain amount of suspicion, whether all who enter in the kingdom of God also come from God. This autumn I was obscured so as to become as insignificant as possible and was twice a spectator at my own funeral, the first time as Count Robilant (no, he is my son, in so far as I am Carlo Alberto, and untrue to my nature) but I myself was Antonelli. Dear Herr Professor you should see this edifice as I am wholly inexperienced in the things I create, so that you are free to make every criticism, I am grateful without being able to promise that I shall profit thereby. We artists are unteachable.

From the letters written by

Nietzsche after he became insane.
