We see in this book a good extension of the philosophy of Schopenhauer into a moral system. Personally I would add two formula: “be useful“ and “force yourself“ both borrowed from Harrison Ford. Nietzsche describes the true form and actuality of the Idea, a word that we must use, which enables to be truly useful: not for trite human existence but for the idea itself. Ultimately the joy of speculation makes it possible for us to motivate ourselves.
pickOverall, still yes, but I can't really disagree with Nietzsche's own assasment that the latter chapters were unnecessary.
Post-section-10 is mostly blah but I liked this bit. Now to finish the book sooner rather than later.
Yes, still. I lost my secondary reason for reading this so it's slow now.
Reading other people's notes in books is easily one of my favorite things.
When the book isn't yours, so you can't underline (no, Debbie, the underlines are my friend's, it's his book, it's ok.)
