Twofold misjudgement. - The misfortune suffered by · Friedrich Nietzsche

Twofold misjudgement. - The misfortune suffered by clear-minded and easily understood writers is that they are taken for shallow and thus little effort is expended on reading them: and the good fortune that attends the obscure is that the reader toils at them and ascribes to them the pleasure he has in fact gained from his own zeal.

Friedrich Nietzsche

1844-10-15 — 1900-08-25 · Röcken

Friedrich Nietzsche was an influential German philosopher, philologist, and cultural critic. His work addresses themes such as morality, religion, truth, art, and the human condition, with a radical critique of traditional Western values. He is known for concepts such as the "death of God", the "superman" (Übermensch), and the "will to power" (Wille zur Macht). His writing is marked by an aphoristic and provocative style, which challenges the reader to rethink their beliefs and values.
