Rating: Two reviews on this site about this myth, two embarrassing reviews. What I demand is at least a minimum of understanding for the estrangement of this man in the face of the whims, the demands, the greedy desires of common men. These vices are the psychic condition from which our type of society is shaped, a hurried fury of material production. The psyche of a termite is something different and determines the colony (these insects could wave the flag with the sickle and hammer).
The world is divided into bourgeois and proletarians, distinguished by the thickness of the wallet, by purchasing power; and the economy is the whole of human things. Thus spoke Marx.
The world is divided between good and bad, and the good are the harmless, those who confirm the rule, the mass. Thus spoke Paul.
Ah, welcome Nietzsche, with your load of novelties! What do you say?
The world is divided into subtle irrational character differences? Personality is the least treated concept by philosophers: misunderstood because it is dangerous. And we come to your personality, friend Nietzsche ... but not here, not in this context.
What a peculiar individual! You are a man of thought, hyper-spiritualized, hyper-intellectualized. The human animal that surpasses the barrier of the outside, of action, to become something interior. You yourself have announced it. "The greatest events are the greatest thoughts" (in "Beyond Good and Evil"). You have surpassed the act, you have become all spirit. And for this you escaped the plebeian noise, in search of yourself and your friends, the "kindred" spirits. The latter you did not find.
Your language, your German is the most beautiful that has ever been written: the word has an unusual timbre, the clarity of form is present, so polished and precise, and the music of the words enchants the senses, a language with a strong oral and expressive power. It is sublime art.
"Du großes Gestirn! Was wäre dein Glück, wenn du nicht die hättest, welchen du leuchtest!" (Also sprach Zarathustra)
Yes, sweet and elegant music. It is so caressing. It expresses all your goodness, you who have made this gift to your fellows.
You are the living proof of the inequality of men, you rare specimen of a man, who grows in hidden places, "like the blueberry where nothing else good grows."
You are famous, yet at the same time hidden from unwelcome eyes. They do not understand either your identity or your sufferings, the sufferings of one who is different.
Some might think that the world does not revolve around men like you. But you do not claim this. You only seek to express yourself, to find your homeland.
"My friends, you must become a people, and from this will arise an aristocratic people, and from this the superman" (Thus Spoke Zarathustra)
In Zarathustra "at every moment man is surpassed, the superman becomes here the highest reality. Zarathustra knows he is the highest species of existence." (Ecce Homo)
"Once the spirit was God, then it became man, now it is even becoming plebe" (Thus Spoke Zarathustra)

By Martina1994
"It's a book that, in the long run, bores and does not captivate the reader (...) who gets lost in a kind of labyrinth, ending up with a headache."
"The obscure language allows everyone to construct their own interpretation of Nietzsche, and that's probably why this philosopher had a great commercial success."
