Even Nitsche, who learned to drink mate from his sister, said that the men life finishes with the hyperactivity if one removes all the elements of contemplation from it:
“Aus Mangel an Ruhe läuft unsere Zivilisation in eine neue Barbarei aus. Zu keiner Zeit haben die Tätigen, das hei?t die Ruhelosen, mehr gegolten.
Es gehört deshalb zu den notwendigen Korrekturen, welche man am Charakter der Menscheit vornehmen muss, das beschaluiche Element in großen Masse zu verstärken.”
