“Love desires, fear shuns. That is why one cannot be loved and honored by one and the same person; at least not at the same time. For he who honors recognizes power; that is to say he fears it. But love recognizes no power; and because it does not honor, ambitious men are, secretly or openly, recalcitrant toward being loved.”
—Nietzsche ~ Human, All Too Human: Vol. 1, §603
