Friedrich Nietzsche on Person - Dictionary of Arguments
Danto III 180 Person/Nietzsche/Danto: When Nietzsche speaks of morality as an antithesis, he has in mind its repressive effect, which we can regard as an unhindered expression of wishes, needs and desires. A "natural" person would then be one who simply satisfies his/her needs; the person would behave like an infant, perhaps even an animal, or more precisely: like a late Roman emperor. Nietzsche: All passions have a time when they are merely fatal, where they drag their victims down with the severity of stupidity.(1) >Human/Nietzsche, >Subject/Nietzsche, >Life/Nietzsche. 1. F. Nietzsche Götzen-Dämmerung, KGW VI. 3, S. 76._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
