More From Friedrich Nietzsche

The savage interrupted him. "but isn't it natural to feel there's a god?" "you might as well ask if it's natural to do up one's trousers with zippers," said the controller sarcastically. "you remind me of another of those old fellows called bradley. he defined philosophy as the finding of bad reason for what one believes by instinct. as if one believed anything by instinct! one believes things because one has been conditioned to believe them. finding bad reasons for what one believes for other bad reasons – that's philosophy. people believe in god because they've been conditioned to."

An individual in despair despairs over something. . . . in despairing over something, he really despair[s] over himself, and now he wants to get rid of himself. consequently, to despair over something is still not despair proper. . . . to despair over oneself, in despair to will to be rid of oneself-this is the formula for all despair.
Individuality Despair Want
Compared with the person who is conscious of his despair, the despairing individual who is ignorant of his despair is simply a negativity further away from the truth and deliverance. . . . yet ignorance is so far from breaking the despair or changing despair to nondespairing that it can in fact be the most dangerous form of despair. . . . an individual is furthest from being conscious of himself as spirit when he is ignorant of being in despair. but precisely this-not to be conscious of oneself as spirit-is despair, which is spiritlessness. . . .

When we consider that each of us has only one life to live, isn’t it rather tragic to find men and women, with brains capable of comprehending the stars and the planets, talking about the weather; men and women, with hands capable of creating works of art, using those hands only for routine tasks; men and women, capable of independent thought, using their minds as a bowling-alley for popular ideas; men and women, capable of greatness, wallowing in mediocrity; men and women, capable of self-expression, slowly dying a mental death while they babble the confused monotone of the mob?

When calling for authenticity, we need to take seriously the brokenness and sinfulness of the human heart. if to be authentic means to be who we really are or to express what we really feel, then in most cases i’m going to vote for hypocrisy. our prisons are filled with men and women who acted on their feelings and impulses. if authenticity is about being true to yourself, these individuals should be our models of inspiration.
