Nietzsche sounds like the diamond sutra sometimes:
Quote:
“Main thought! The individual himself is a fallacy. Everything which happens in us is in itself something else which we do not know. ‘The individual’ is merely a sum of conscious feelings and judgments and misconceptions, a belief, a piece of the true life system or many pieces thought together and spun together, a ‘unity’, that doesn’t hold together. We are buds on a single tree—what do we know about what can become of us from the interests of the tree! But we have a consciousness as though we would and should be everything, a phantasy of ‘I’ and all ‘not I.’ Stop feeling oneself as this phantastic ego! Learn gradually to discard the supposed individual! Discover the fallacies of the ego! Recognize egoism asfallacy! The opposite is not to be understood as altruism! This would be love of other supposed individuals! No! Get beyond ‘myself’ and ‘yourself’! Experience cosmically!”

”When an illness is incurable and painful, and makes useful activity impossible, it is mere cruelty to prolong life; at any rate if the sufferer is anxious to die, or has lost reason. The prolongation of life can be neither a happiness to the sufferer nor a benefit to society, and is therefore equally unjustified from the standpoint of the individual and from that of the community.” — Bertrand Russell, Mortals and Others: American Essays 1931–1935, Vol II. Essay On Euthanasia (1 January 1934), p. 267

"He (Buddha) used the image of someone who is hit by an arrow. A few minutes later, a second arrow comes and strikes exactly the same spot. After the second arrow comes, not only the pain is doubled by it can be tripled or ten times more painful, intense." Pain, Despair, and The Second Arrow, Thich Nhat Hanh

Quote:
“For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can't readily accept the God formula, the big answers don't remain stone-written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a command nor faith a dictum. I am my own god. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.” ― Charles Bukowski
