Do we not hear anything yet of the noise of the gravediggers who are burying God? Do we not smell anything yet of God's decomposition? Gods, too, decompose. God is dead. God remains dead.

神を埋葬する墓掘り人たちの立てる音がまだ聞こえないのか。神が腐っていくにおいにまだ気づかないのか。神々もまた、朽ち果てる。神は死んだ。神は死んだままだ。我々人間が神を殺したのだ。殺害者の中の殺害者である我々人間に、どんな慰めの言葉があろうか。 - フリードリッヒ・ヴィルヘルム・ニーチェ (1844 - 1900): 『悦ばしい知識』
