Nietzsche

An empty stomach, five cigarettes, lack of sleep, a turbulent mind and Nuovo Cinema Paradiso have made me decide to desert Nietzsche for a while.

There is a saying in Japanese, 柳の枝に雪折れなし (litt. the branches of a willow don't break under the weight of snow), which basically means as much as in yielding is strength. Oh so true.
