Der Wahrheit dienen wenige in Wahrheit,
weil nur wenige den reinen Willen haben
gerecht zu sein und selbst von diesen wieder
die wenigsten die Kraft, gerecht sein zu können.

The truth few serve in truth,
since only a few have the pure will
to be just, and even of these few again
the fewest have the strength to be able to be just.
~Nietzsche
