A review by williamzzengg
Nietzsche and Philosophy by Gilles Deleuze
5.0
hopefully will reread multiple times in my life. Still don't fully understand, but what little bits I did understand were very helpful in providing a foundation for interpreting Nietzsche. Foundation?!
"Reason sometimes dissuades and sometimes forbids us to cross certain limits: because it is useless (knowledge is there to predict) because it would be evil (life is there to be virtuous), because it is impossible (there is nothing to think behind the truth). -- But does not critique, understood as a critique of knowledge itself, express new forces capable of giving thought another sense?"
"Zarathustra says: 'the unfamiliar things of the future and whatever frightened stray birds, are truly more familiar and more genial than your "reality". For thus you speak: "We are complete realists and without belief or superstition": thus you thump your chests -- alas, even without having chests! But how should you be able to believe, you motley-spotted men! -- you who are paintings of all that has ever been believed!...'"
