  • At Basel Nietzsche had become a close friend of Richard Wagner (1813-1883),
  • Thus Spoke Zarathustra centered around the notions of the will to power, radical nihilism, and the eternal recurrence. Pain, suffering, and contradictions are no longer seen as objections to existence but as an expression of its actual tensions. In a note entitled 'Anti-Darwin' Nietzsche stated that "man as a species is not progressing."

    One of my favorite books ever. Raskolnikov kills two women to prove that he is one of the "supermen" Nietzche talks about as being able to rise above the moral structure of God, which, according to Nietzsche, is now dead. "Is not the greatness of this deed too great for us?"
