'NOW do I die and disappear,' wouldst thou say, 'and in a moment I am nothing. Souls are as mortal as bodies.
But the plexus of causes returners in which I am intertwined, - it will again create me! I myself pertain to the causes of the eternal return.
I come again with this sun, with this earth, with this eagle, with this serpent - not to a new life, or a better life, or a similar life:
- I come again eternally to this identical and selfsame life, in its greatest and its smallest, to teach again the eternal return of all things."
- The animals to Zarathustra. Thus Sprak Zarathustra. Freidrich Nietzsche.
