devayana:The classical hero struggled with fortuna primarily in war & on the high seas. Nietzsch
devayana:The classical hero struggled with fortuna primarily in war & on the high seas. Nietzsche’s heroes are ‘adventurers & circumnavigators of that inner world called ‘man’ ’. The battlefield is within the self, and the corpus of knowledge supplies all the mysteries and intrigue of uncharted waters. The hope is that a higher age 'will carry heroism into the search for knowledge..For believe me: the secret for harvesting existence the greatest fruitfulness and the greatest enjoyment is - to live dangerously! Build your cities on the slopes of Vesuvius! Send your ships into uncharted seas! Live at war with your peers and yourselves!’Leslie Paul Thiele, with quotes from Nietzsche’s Human, All Too Human & Joyful Wisdom. -- source link
