See this moment!" I continued. "From this gateway Moment a long eternal lane stretches backward: behind us lies an eternity.
Must not whatever can already have passed this way before? Must not whatever can happen, already have happened, been done, passed by before?
And if everything has already been done before, what do you think of this moment, dwarf? Must this gateway too not already - have been here?
And are not all things firmly knotted together in such a way that this moment draws after it all things to come? Therefore - itself as well?
For, whatever can run, even in this long lane outward - must run it once more!
- Nietzsche: Thus Spoke Zarathustra (part3; section2; On the Vision and the Riddle)
