FRIEDRICH NIETZSCHE

Once having passions you called them evil. Now however you have nothing but your virtues: they grew out of your passions.

And though you were from the stock of the choleric, or of the voluptuous, or of the religiously frantic, or of the vindictive:

At last all your passions grew virtues and all your devils angels.
