Publisher's Summary

In the following audiobook, a few of Nietzsche’s most interesting sayings are arranged under general headings. They show, of course, nothing of his wonderfully acute processes of ratiocination, but only his conclusions. Nevertheless, they may serve to give some notion of the manner, as well as of the matter, of his philosophy.

He was, first of all, a ruthless destroyer—the most savage and resolute, it is probable, that Christian morals and Christian civilization have ever had to face. Therefore, these extracts are confined chiefly to his objections and objurgations, and leave for the listener's own inquiry his efforts to create.
