Oh 59 The strength of a person spirit can be measured by how much truth he could tolerate so what extent he needs to have it deluded disguised and sweetened Frederick Nietzsche

— from True North (Ethics, Integrity, Truth, Values)

In the book

Honor the people who are still seeking the truth, and be a little wary of those certain they have already found it. The strength of a person's spirit, Nietzsche said, can be measured by how much truth he can tolerate — how little he needs it softened, disguised, and sweetened. And be patient with truth: ideas and truths are not born finished; they get formed and molded and tested over a long time until they become something you can actually stand on. — True North (Ethics, Integrity, Truth, Values)
