Friedrich Nietzsche

The Will To Power
Book Two: Critique of Highest Values

259 Insight: all evaluation is made from a definite perspective: that of the preservation of the individual, a community, a race, a  state, a church, a faith, a culture.- Because we forget that valua­tion is always from a perspective, a single individual contains within him a vast confusion of contradictory valuations and con­sequently of contradictory drives. This is the expression of the diseased condition in man, in contrast to the animals in which all existing instincts answer to quite definite tasks.

Day 2867, old poem.

Poem in Dutch, 2006
Through the snow I continue where the path ends

the path that took me to that which is unexpected
thinking we know where we are going understand
what am I doing here what am I doing in the snow
I can give you reason or two maybe three or more
so what is true of all of this or what will value have
the cold snow on the ground I fall into is full of this
unthinkable thoughts a never-conceivable realities
without reason it wants to give anything the truth
It happens spontaneously in passing just like that
don't think too much think like a child every day
without a past dare to fall into the cold snow
do not be afraid of the wet or the blame
wet cloth can dry the days disappear
disappearing into the horizons
the one that is behind you
full of old imaginations
heavy as a burden
denied bitterness
you will forget
what it was
as a child
to be to
fall in
snow
Wet
am
I

that
is like
to become
a child
play
