Famous Quotes | Actual philosophers ... are...
Actual philosophers ... are commanders and law-givers: they say “thus it shall be!”, it is they who determine the Wherefore and Whither of mankind, and they possess for this task the preliminary work of all the philosophical labourers, of all those who have subdued the past—they reach for the future with creative hand, and everything that is or has been becomes for them a means, an instrument, a hammer. Their “knowing” is creating, their creating is a lawgiving, their will to truth is—will to power. Are their such philosophers today? Have there been such philosophers? Must there not be such philosophers?- Friedrich Nietzsche
