Nietzsche on the Eternal Recurrence

This life as you now live it and have lived it, you will have to live once more and innumerable times more; and there will be nothing new in it, but every pain and every joy and every thought and sigh and everything unutterably small or great in your life will have to return to you, all in the same succession and sequence.
 
                       --- Friedrich Nietzsche   The Gay Science, section 341
