"And this is the great noontide: it is when man stands at the middle of his course between animal and Superman, and celebrates his journey to the evening as his highest hope, for it is the journey to a new morning.
Man is a rope stretched between the animal and the Superman–a rope over an abyss. A dangerous crossing, a dangerous wayfaring, a dangerous looking-back, a dangerous trembling and halting. … I love him who liveth in order to know, and seeketh to know in order that the Superman may hereafter live. … I love him who laboureth and inventeth, that he may build the house for the Superman, and prepare for him earth, animal, and plant."
Friedrich Nietzsche
