Which Gas Stations Have Condoms

Prologue: From Beyond Good and Evil

Assuming that truth is a woman - how?, Is not justified suspicion that all philosophers, insofar as they have been dogmatists, have understood little of women?, how shocking that the seriousness, the clumsy insistence that until now have tended to approach the media were really unfit and incompetent to win the favors of a woman exactly? truth is that she has left to conquer - and today every kind of dogma is standing there with an attitude of grief and despair. If that all still standing! Well, there are scoffers who claims to have fallen, that all dogma lies on the ground, moreover, that any dogmatic in the past. Seriously, there are good reasons which support the hope that all dogmatizes in philosophy, even if it is presented as something very solemn, very definite and valid, may not have been more than a noble childishness and beginners thing, and you may be very near the time that is increasingly understood what has sufficed itself to lay the foundation stone of such sublime and unconditional buildings dogmatic philosophers that have been raised so far - from any popular superstition of immemorial time (such as the superstition of the soul, which, in the subject and how superstition superstition I still have not ceased to cause harm), perhaps a game any words, a seduction on the part of grammar or a reckless generalization made very small, very personal, very human, too human. The dogmatic philosophy has been, hopefully, only one making promises for millennia: as it was, in a much earlier age, astrology, in whose service it is possible that more work has been invested, money insight, patience the invested so far in favor of any of the real science - claims she and her "supernatural" is in Asia and in Egypt the grand style of architecture. It seems that all great things, to enroll in the heart of humanity with eternal demands, they have to roam the earth before that monstrous frightful and grotesque figures, one of those grotesque figures was the dogmatic philosophy, such as the Vedanta doctrine in Asia and Platonism in Europe. Let us not be ungrateful to them, although we admit that the worst, most enduring and dangerous of errors hitherto has been dogmatic error, to know, Plato's invention of pure spirit and good in itself. However, now that this error has been overcome, now that Europe was relieved from his nightmare and at least one is permitted to enjoy a better - sleep, we, whose task is to be awake, the heirs of all the force that struggle against this error has developed and grown. In any case, talk of mind and well as Plato did mean to put the head down and refuse truth perspectivism, which is a fundamental condition of all life, indeed, as doctors lawful for us to ask: "where does that disease that appears in the most beautiful plant of antiquity, Plato? Is it that the wicked Socrates corrupt?, Would it have been a Socrates, therefore, the corrupter of youth?, What would have deserved his hemlock? "- But the struggle against Plato or, to put it more intelligible to the "people", the struggle against oppression Christian church for centuries-for Christianity is Platonism for "the people" - launched in Europe a magnificent tension of the spirit, which had not been before in the earth so tense a bow we can take now targeting the more distant goals. It is true that Europeans feel is stress such a pitiful state, and already twice been done, with great style, trying to loosen the bow, the first by the Jesuits, and the second by the democratic illustration: - to which was given in fact be done using the freedom of the press and reading the newspapers, that the spirit is not so easily felt and himself as "arduous nature!" (The Germans Invent the gunpowder - all my respect for it!, but returned to repair them, "invented the press.) But we who are neither Jesuits nor democrats, nor even sufficiently Germans, we good Europeans, and free spirits, very free - we have it yet, we have the arduous nature throughout the whole spirit and power of his bow! And perhaps also the arrow, the task and, who knows, even the white ... Friedrich Nietzsche
