I also love this quote. And ... the two phrases belongs together. So I tried a translation which hopefully fits:

 

 

"He who fights with monsters, should take care that he does not become thereby a monster.

 

And if you look for a long time into an abyss, the abyss looks also into you."

 

 

Friedrich Nietzsche,

Beyond Good and Evil

"Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds"

 

Originally from the Baghavad Gita, but Frank Oppenheimer ('Father of the bomb') said it after exploding the A-bomb. Been in many of my past sigs. The response that one of his students had to him saying that was rather good too:

 

"And now we're all sons of (female dogs)"

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear... And when it is gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear is gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”

 

Frank Herbert

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”

 

Theodore Roosevelt

 

Very cool :thumbsup:
