There's A Lesson in this Excerpt Applicable to Today
“To demand of strength that it should not express itself as strength, that it should not be a desire to overcome, a desire to throw down, a desire to become master, a thirst for enemies and resistances and triumphs, is just as absurd as to demand of weakness that it should express itself as strength.”
Friedrich Nietzsche, Basic Writings of Nietzsche, Genealogy of Morals, First Essay, Section 13, pg. 481, Translated and Edited by Walter Kaufmann
