Depravity

Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900), "Why I Am So Clever," § 8, in Ecce Homo (tr. Walter Kaufmann):
Early in the morning, when day breaks, when all is fresh, in the dawn of one's strength―to read a book at such a time is simply depraved!

Frühmorgens beim Anbruch des Tags, in aller Frische, in der Morgenröthe seiner Kraft, ein Buch lesen―das nenne ich lasterhaft!
