Friedrich Nietzsche More Quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche More Quotes From Friedrich Nietzsche Free will appears unfettered, deliberate; it is boundlessly free, wandering, the spirit. But fate is a necessity; unless we believe that world history is a dream-error, the unspeakable sorrows of mankind fantasies, and that we ourselves are but the toys of our fantasies.
