so-soI read this to fulfill Bookriot's Read Harder task: Read a book you've been intimidated to read. I could barely comprehend it. He talks a lot about various philosophers of his time and also from earlier times. I didn't know enough about their theories to really understand his arguments.
Starting it today. Hope to finish it by Sunday :D
What are your plans for the weekend?
• Sadly, a #DNF for me. I was in over my head trying to understand what Neitzsche was writing. Shame because I like #philosophy and would like to explore his work. Maybe I'll try another of his or revisit this one in the future, but it's not for me right now •

*Thanks very much to @TK-421 for another wonderful month of quotes! Can‘t wait for next month—go July!! 🥂
bailedBailing around the 10% mark. I think philosophy books are just not for me... this is going straight over my head and I just don‘t get anything out of it. I had a similar reaction to Peter Singer‘s One World Now book. For me these books are more suited as text books rather than laymen trying to get some exposure to the ideas.
Not really Friday Funday reading material but a nun with candy always lightens the mood!

pickMy fave non-fiction novel. Yes, I admit, its sexist even for the time but that's forgivable if you know the man's history with women. Beyond that its a concise and timely philosophy that encourages one to become their own person. I even prefer it to Thus Spoke Zarathustra (which it summarizes) although the imagery suffers for the sake of brevity.
There might be a #moral or two to be gleaned from these books. Perhaps I'll know once I actually read it 😬

"That which does not kill you makes you stronger."
This is my most favorite quote of ALL time. So much so it's tattooed on my back! ?
"Madness is something rare in individuals — but in groups, parties, peoples, and ages, it is the rule."
150 years later and Nietzsche's philosophy is still as insightful and radical as ever.

Reading this book translated from the German as suggested by @megt in my Littens book challenge! Tesla is not happy a book is on my lap and not her so she extends a paw to remind me she's there❤️📖

There is no such thing as moral phenomena, but only a moral interpretation of phenomena.
He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you.
bailedIt wasn't what i hoped to expect, the book was about personal views about its time Germany and such. To put simply; it is neither a novel nor story to enjoy or learn from. This kind of book for those who study philosophy's history.
"One loves ultimately one's desires, not the thing desired."
I'm nearly finishing this one, a review about it will be posted soon.
