“But the worst enemy you can meet will always be yourself; you ambush yourself in caverns and forests.”

Source: Thus Spoke Zarathustra. The Way of the Creator.
Context: But the worst enemy you can meet will always be yourself; you ambush yourself in caverns and forests. You solitary one, you go the way to yourself! And your way leads you past yourself and your seven devils! You will be a heretic to yourself, and a sorcerer and a soothsayer, and a fool, and a doubter, and a reprobate, and a villain. You must be ready to burn yourself in your own flame; how could you rise anew if you have not first become ashes!
