Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (October 15, 1844 -- August 25, 1900) was a nineteenth-century German philosopher. He wrote critiques of religion, morality, contemporary culture, philosophy, and science, using a distinctive style and displaying a fondness for aphorism. Nietzsche's influence remains substantial within and beyond philosophy, notably in existentialism and postmodernism. His style, and radical questioning of the value and objectivity of truth, raise considerable problems of interpretation, generating an extensive secondary literature in both continental and analytic philosophy. Nonetheless, his key ideas include interpreting tragedy as an affirmation of life, an eternal recurrence that has fallen into numerous interpretations, and a reversal of Platonism.
Nietzsche began his career as a philologist before turning to philosophy. At the age of 24 he became Professor of Classical Philology at the University of Basel, but resigned in 1879 due to health problems, which would plague him for most of his life. In 1889 he exhibited symptoms of a serious mental illness, living out his remaining years in the care of his mother and sister until his death in 1900.

i always loved the quote Nietzsche used : 'the last christian died on the cross' it always reminds me how idiotic religion is. it's goddamn dangerous.
If you're so against religion and in support of reason (I assume you feel they're incompatible), how can you justify saying God damn? Either the Abrahamic God that is in the business of damning things exists and has explicitly requested that you not use that term or he doesn't and there is nothing to do the damning and the term is meaningless. Take either position, but don't fall into inconsistency, the hobgloblin of little minds.
i'm sorry. i'm not english or american.i'm from Belgium so i don't realy understand what you're saying. But i think what you meant was why i used the meaningless word 'goddamn'. I think you're right about the fact that it is indeed meaningless but lots of words and things are. What we do or what we say. If i wanna say 'Godfuckingdammit' i say it, because i want to. and that is that. cheers mate
free will doesnt exist we born slaves chained to our impulses,desires,instincs the only chance that we have to be free is when we recognize that most people live thinking that they free when in reality they are surround by bounderies that have forced upon them . It is possible to be happy in a cage
What is wrong with elitism?do you know any genius?they don't care about money or power, they actualy enjoy doing these thing you would classify as tough to impossible:Alright lets save the world today... -Oh! right ben a month since last time?, was getting bored here with these begining of the universe reflection...
So just let them endle the problems of the world and sit back in front of a genius designed intelligent computer that can suck your balls...
I hypothesise that personality(Character)is psychological appearance. Our consciousness being the conjonction of our memory, senses and psychology. There is deep psychology (sub-conscious) and superficial(personality)its kinf of our inner look(inner beauty...or) thus we could parallel getting a new hair cut, cloth and make-up to Nietzsche adding style to character...just gotta be metaphorical and psychological(reflex clarification)...
I always find it amusing listening to defensive mid twenty somethings preach as if they have yet tasted what life is really like. Big suprises coming your way in the next 6 years.
Its amusing how people see Nietzsche as some kind of liberator. Of course he was, at first glance, to a great degree... but taking his thought to its ultimate end... he did NOT want most people to be free, or to think for themselves, he found both concepts inherently absurd. He saw life as becoming, a battle of powers - his main critique of prevalent dogmas was that they gave the powerful guilty consciences.

Freidrich was a laughing, dancing, musical philosopher, ~not a didactician, drudge, veil-maker or system-builder.
He is a refreshing wave washing away eons of creaking confabulations and delusional armor.
You need to be more an amphisbaenic poet to speak of his work, not a staccato, pedantic logician.
He gambols and gambles.
He does not march or parch.
it always reminds me how idiotic religion is. it's goddamn dangerous.
