Error has made animals into men; is truth in a position to make men into animals again?
Friedrich NietzscheAll philosophers make the common mistake of taking contemporary man as their starting point and of trying, through an analysis of him, to[21] reach a conclusion. "Man" involuntarily presents himself to them as an aeterna veritas as a passive element in every hurly-burly, as a fixed standard of things. Yet everything uttered by the philosopher on the subject of man is, in the last resort, nothing more than a piece of testimony concerning man during a very limited period of time.
Friedrich NietzscheWhoever turns away from us might not offend us in doing so perhaps, but he certainly offends our followers.
