The following excerpts are from "On the Future of Our Educational Institutions", First Lecture, delivered by Nietzsche as Prof. of Philology at the University of Basel on the 16th of January 1872. (http://www.geocities.com/thenietzschechannel/fed1.htm)
Thus we stood facing one another in silence, while the sunset dyed the treetops a ruddy gold. The philosopher contemplated the sun, his companion contemplated him, and we turned our eyes towards our nook in the woods which today we seemed in such great danger of losing. A feeling of sullen anger took possession of us.
"Besides, my friend," said the philosopher, "I am not half so displeased with these warlike youngsters as I was. Did you observe how quiet they were a moment ago, when we were contemplating the sun? They neither spoke nor smoked, they stood stone still, I even believe they meditated."
Petre
