“Strauss expressly refers to the “Notes.” He continues: “If ‘religion’ and ‘politics’ are the facts that transcend ‘culture’ or, to speak more exactly, are the original facts, then the radical critique of the concept of ‘culture’ is possible only in the form of a ‘theological-political treatise,’ which must, however, if it is not to lead again to the foundation of ‘culture,’ have the very opposite tendency to that of seventeenth-century theological-political treatises, especially those of Hobbes and Spinoza.”

“Wenn das Leben bös von sich spricht, glaubt er der Unglaublichten nicht. Dagegen verführt die Weisheit dann am meisten, wenn sie von sich schlecht spricht. Die Weisheit gewinnt Zarathustra gerade durch ihre Fähigkeit zur Selbskritik. Dagegen findet das Leben keinen Glauben bei ihm, wenn es böse von sich redet, weil sein tiefster Glaube sagt, daß das Leben gut sei.”

“(6) The understanding that philosophers have of man is superficial: they are not able to fathom his depths, his despair, what is hidden in his craving for distraction and in the mood of boredom, which discloses more of man’s reality than all his rational activities.”
