Nietzsche

[Slarti]

I just started reading stuff by Nietzsche,  and was wondering anyone has any suggestions for what of his stuff i should read. Right now, i'm reading Thus Spoke Zarathustra.

[zenji]

"The Gay Science"
"The Birth of Tragedy"
"Human, All Too Human"
"Beyond Good and Evil"
"On the Geneality of Morals"
"Ecce Homo"
"The Will to Power"


And when you've finished these babes....
............ try to search out some of the essays he did on Wagner!

Thus Spake Zarathustra and left his cave, glowing and strong, like a morning sun coming out of gloomy mountains!

[Slarti]

how do you pronounce it? is it like "neetch"? or "neetch-uh"??

[zenji]

You don't realise just how funny that is!!!!    

Put a google search on for "Zoroaster"or "Zarathistra"..

Just started reading thus spoke zarathustra...

Look out world I have a haggis nunchukau and I'm not sure how to use it.
I mean I know how to use one, I've made them, but not haggis ones...
Haggis is such a hard medium to work with anyway... always so vague... like the pythian oracle at delphi...

anyway so long for now...

give birth to a dancing star.  I say unto you: you still have chaos in
yourselves." -Nietzsche

i must not have a philisophical mind- i can't understand a word of nietzche without a book telling me what that author thinks it means. Of course, that might be because i'm in high school, and am currently being taught not to think, that might not help.

Read the book naked!

Evil Poet............do you use that quote as a "signature" on another forum?


One of my favourites from Fred............sums up his vision perfectly................

Now I feel light, now I can fly. Now I see myself under myself..........now there dances a God in me."

Evil Poet............do you use that quote as a "signature" on another forum?

I have posted that quote in other forums, but I have not used it as a signature. Also, the first part of that quote is in the Principia Discordia - on the page across from The Pentabarf. Hail Eris! All Hail Discordia!  

[zenji]

Ha............EvilPoet...........then it is not you!!

That quote is used as a sig. for quite a bright poster in moby.com............
but I would not recommend you go there............

Actually Neitzsche is me off acid...
It's not much of a distinction but it is important when turning up to the surprise birthday party to know who to spook with a chainsaw and shave their bikini line...

And If you could just check that god hasn't become a zombie again and gotten out of the grave beneath by poolhouse floor I'd much appreciate it... Ressurect god once, shame on you... ressurect god twice... shame on me...

Anyway I have to go to fernando poo on business, if you'll excuse me I have an echaton to prismaticise...

Actually as an interesting side note... tim leary on one of his more sailient visits to the near east came across a buddhist monk and they started talking about his studies and the guy volunteered to try some LSD and tell him about it... so he statches up like four or five tabs, scoffs them down... and nothing happens...

I wonder what it would be like to have that kind of mental discipline and try a mind-altering substance? Give me four years of asceticism and I may have an answer for you .

Say... what about a discordian monastary? you can still do it, you just have to devote your life to philosophy and extreme zen .
Ah... now that I could dig... living in sandals and robes rent free for my entire life, talking to influential people on a daily basis and still being able to shag like every other homo cabbagus .
