I recognized that quote, since I saw it on the page for
He Who Fights Monsters...
He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And when you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.
(
Wer mit Ungeheuern kämpft, mag zusehn, dass er nicht dabei zum Ungeheuer wird. Und wenn du lange in einen Abgrund blickst, blickt der Abgrund auch in dich hinein.)
--Nietzsche aphorism, taken from
Jenseits von Gut und Böse (Beyond Good and Evil)
