"Kant views humans as ends in themselves, rational beings deserving respect. Only act in ways you’d want everyone to act, as treating people as mere means violates their dignity. We can reason and make deliberate choices, unlike other sentient beings. True moral action requires autonomy; universal law means acting from reason, not heteronomy.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​" 22 hours, 11 min ago

Friedrich Nietzsche
“I dislike him.”—Why?—“I am not a match for him.”—Did any one ever answer so?”
Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil

Ernst Jünger
“Throughout the war, it was always my endeavour to view my opponent without animus, and to form an opinion of him as a man on the basis of the courage he showed. I would always try and seek him out in combat and kill him, and I expected nothing else from him. But never did I entertain mean thoughts of him. When prisoners fell into my hands, later on, I felt responsible for their safety, and would always do everything in my power for them.”
Ernst Jünger, Storm of Steel

Fyodor Dostoevsky
“As a general rule, people, even the wicked, are much more naive and simple-hearted than we supposed. And we ourselves are, too.”
Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

Friedrich Nietzsche
“God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him. How shall we comfort ourselves, the murderers of all murderers? What was holiest and mightiest of all that the world has yet owned has bled to death under our knives: who will wipe this blood off us? What water is there for us to clean ourselves? What festivals of atonement, what sacred games shall we have to invent? Is not the greatness of this deed too great for us? Must we ourselves not become gods simply to appear worthy of it?”
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
“It is the business of the very few to be independent; it is a privilege of the strong. And whoever attempts it, even with the best right, but without being OBLIGED to do so, proves that he is probably not only strong, but also daring beyond measure.”
Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil
