"Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you." Nietzsche
This happened to me with mushrooms in Amsterdam. Damn abyss I've never been the same since x
Christopher Bronson I am batman!
Remember that quete from original baldursgate, it was even atributed to him.
I gazed into the abyss and all I got was this lousy T-shirt.
Ah, Baldur's Gate. It is still awesome.
when Nietzsche hugged the horse and yelled “i understand you” i felt that deep within my soul. RIP
I cried
Exactly my thoughts

Hypersensitivity.
If I could tell a story. An acquaintance, Jim, suffered bouts of mental illness. He was an artist. I met him through another artist friend named Budd. Budd would tell me about Jim going to the hospital again, the circumstances that landed him there. One of the times Jim was hospitalized occurred when they were both attending a painting course at the local community college. We were all adults but would take an inexpensive course at the college for the camaraderie with fellow artists. Jim began acting oddly in class, then wandered into the pine barrens nearby the school. Jim spent a week in the woods, barefoot in the snow playing a pan flute before his mother was contacted, and he went to the mental hospital.
OK, so Jim is a strange person who goes to the mental hospital for his safety from time to time. It was Budd that was in most communication with Jim. Budd stops by and tells me that Jim is in the hospital again; admitted because he got depressed when at the end of the summer, his tomato plants started dying. I thought that so odd at the time. About five years later, when I was 31 years old, I got into meditation. I was serious about it, meditating for enlightenment. After a year and a half of meditation, I had a spiritual event. It was a mentally painful condition. During this event that lasted five agonizing days, I, in the most profound way, understood Jim suffering about his tomato plants. Here now, I can remember thinking about and understanding Jim, but it's from the outside. At the time of the event, there was an understanding so intense that I can't describe it adequately. I imagine Nietzsche had a spiritual event similar to mine. I'll tell you that the event that hit me was so intense that I gave up meditation. But it changed me. I'm still me, but a kinder gentler me.
I wish to describe the second wave of hypersensitivity I experienced. An old guy used to hang out at the pizza parlor drawing in a sketch pad near my apartment in Brooklyn, NY. I'd see him there drawing all the time. Finally, after months of seeing the guy there, I talked to him. His name was Richie, and art was a hobby of his. He was a decent amateur artist. I'm a well-trained artist, and showed him how to improve his drawings. Mostly, he needed some contrast between dark and light to make his sketches more interesting immediately. If anyone here draws, tape your drawings to a wall and see how they look from 20' away. If they don't stand out, that would be a lack of contrast. A good formula for balancing a drawing is 25% black, 25% white, and 50% gray.
After some months of catching up with him at the pizza parlor, he came to my residence to see my paintings. He collected books, and had a whole separate apartment from the one he and his wife lived in that housed his book collection, set up like a real library. When he came to visit, he brought a knapsack of art books. One of the books contained the complete etchings of a 19th-century German artist I never heard of. I looked at the prints, they were interesting. I paused on one image that struck me as odd, a male and female figure, clothed, floating horizontal 6' above the earth in a field near a woods. I don't know why it caught me so. I turned to the cover of the book to see the name of the artist, then turned back to the print with the floating couple. The painful condition I described earlier hit so fast and hard that my physical demeanor changed. I recall when the condition hit, my head moved back the way someone might move at a jump scare in a horror movie, not a startled movement, it wasn't much, but my face must have changed too. My reaction was enough that Richie asked, "What's the matter?" I said, "I don't know." The get together was over, I apologized to Richie, said he had to leave. I let him know something had come over me. He couldn't understand it but saw it was real and intense.
The condition lasted four days this time. I had no appetite, was in constant anguish, and couldn't concentrate. I finally forced myself to go to a Chinese restaurant for a lunch special, hoping some nutrition might help. On the three-block walk home from the Chinese restaurant, I got confused by the traffic directions, red light, green light, walk, don't walk. The condition is debilitating that way. Every waking moment was painful, nothing but dread and anguish, like I might imagine a person sentenced to death might feel as the day of execution nears. Everything gets intensified, the sight of a homeless person, can't even watch a situation comedy. I got through it that time by taking Benadryl allergy pills; they put me to sleep, which was the only time I found peace from the agony.
There are few people nowadays that would tolerate someone beating a horse, or dog, or anything. What might have been a common sight back then is against the law now. Most interesting to me about Nietzsche's reaction to the horse beating is his statement, "I understand you." I told those stories, all true, to maybe convey the power of emotion that can come over a person when a spiritual event occurs in life. Jesus wept.
@@nelsonx5326 Jesus wept because he recognized that he should have stayed w/carpentry. He lost his shirt in the religion business. And how much could he get at auction for two pieces of wood, some nails and a crown of thorns?
He didn't actually do that.
"The people should not have blind faith in the church or their political leaders, today this is kind of common sense".
Wait, what?
Yea when he said that I was like, 'no there's still many many people who do that'. Just like there's still many people who think things are black and white with no grey area.
So that was a fucking lie
What I really like about Nietzsche's work is that in his books he's so optimistic while in reality he was suffering mentally and physically almost every day of his life, yet even then he was loyal to his beliefs till the very end, he knew that if he kept going on that road he'll face even more suffering yet he decided to keep going in order to share his ideas to the world, literally just like he predicted about the Übermensch's fate.
He wasn't optimistic per se... He was hopeful. He was a Proto-nihilist, Proto-existentialist, which means in some sense yes indeed he was Proto-transhumanist like Many romantics, such as Mary Shelly, Wagner, and William Blake.
He enjoyed suffering. He talks extensively of how suffering brings great personal growth and self-overcoming.
Sadly, like others around him, he was antisemitic
@@geeianna7708 actually from what I can tell, Nietzsche was anything but… he once compared anti-semites to failed abortions, and it was his sister and her anti semitic husband (both of whom Nietzsche disliked) who edited his works to make him seem anti-semitic.
@@sothatsdevintart2562
Thanks for the clarification. Shocking how you cannot control your reputation when dead
It is worth mentioning that he wrote letters against anti-semitism in his lifetime and that it was this type of sentiment/philosophy was part of what put him at odds with his sister and Wagner. He also supported the idea of women serving on university faculty and was a stretcher-bearer in the Franco-Prussian war which gave him a very sober view of the violence as opposed to many of his peers who glorified it. Contrary to his reputation (as you pointed out) he was a very progressive man. Thanks for covering him!
He said the good war justifies any cause. He's more complicated than you think.
@@Nietzsches-Disciple I went to graduate school in philosophy where Nietzsche was one of my focuses. I believe I understand the his complexities fairly well. He wasn't blinded by machismo like Heidegger.
BF: One of the last things he wrote after his total mental collapse was II had ordered that all the anti-semites be shot." There certainly were things in his writings that anti-semites could and did use. HY=But he was not one, and he wrote letters on the topic, most of which, sadly, does not seem to survive,
Thanks for this comment. I started reading Nietzsche about 5 years ago, and the biggest misconception is that he is this violent misogynist. When some people hear I like Nietzsche, they want to attack. His more incendiary quotes immediately put me in a defensive position so I usually try to avoid the discussion if I can. His actions tell a different story than most would expect. That he was a gentle man who wanted more for women
I have multiple chronic pain issues and I watch You on all your channels to forget the pain. I am mostly bed bound so thank you so much for your amazing work!!
I hope you recover soon 👍.
@@matthewmckenna248 unfortunately, its super rare and there aree no new treatment options left I havent tried and very few if any actively studying it. But there is always hope

Stay strong! What doesn't kill you makes you stronger!
When I found Nietzsche 30+ years ago, I felt liberated from my crushing sense that life was meaningless. I was finally able to make my own meaning instead of looking outside for meaning that just didn't exist. When I found Nietzsche, I found some kind of comfort and peace. He'll therefore always be a hero and much beloved by me ✌❤🇬🇧
"My own meaning." That's just delusion, and very depressing :(
@@jesusistheonlygodamen3406 how
Welcome to Life
@@drreverse2074 any meaning derived from self is only internal and finite. It will end when you end and with the heat death of the universe your life is rendered meaningless- without an eternal God to remember you, you disappear and all trace is gone. Whether you rape women or you help the poor, without God the heat death of the universe reaches the same conclusion and all you did was interact with other molecules to elicit a chemical response, with no change in the conclusion.
. Nietzsche died of syphilis because he slept with prostitutes as his life was empty, and he was the opposite of the uber mensch he spoke of.
@@jesusistheonlygodamen3406 You speak as if you are done with thinking, but you're not. Add humility to your thought process. it's implied by your username, yet you're so prideful. I can see it permeating your thought process. For one thing, it's heavily questioned and even proved-wrong that Nietzsche died of syphilis, yet you speak of it so assuredly. Surrender to a higher power, just like you're telling us all to do.
If anybody's discovering nietzsche through this video, then i tell you he's way deeper than is portrayed in this video. He's that kinda guy you have to read yourself, nobody can explain to you what he's about
But be warned it's a pretty dense and dry read.
Youre right but i Can . Bc im an ubermench
I once saw a t-shirt that said "I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you." This sounds like you. Nietzsche can most definitely be explained.
Yep. I’ve never heard anyone be able to explain what I myself have learned reading him on my own.
@@superscatboy Dry? His words are lyrical and his sentences are bombshells.

Doing gods work
Why?
Elisabeth Nietzsche: "Stop trying to make a cult!"
Also Elisabeth Nietzsche: "I'mma join the nazis!"
Hitler met her when she was in her 80s and when she passed away he gave her a state funeral.
@@atticman4275 the reason could be simply because she's the sister of Nietzsche.
weakest attempt at a meme....ever.
@@jimbehr2291 what are you talking about? That's just what she did.
@@crypto66 are all goverments cults? You are inferring joining a government/state entity is akin to culthood. If so, then that is your meme/argument.
Really good summary, except the final conclusions. His sister was married to a Nazi and a big admirer of Hitler. She was in possession of Nitzsche's work and had the audacity to change it before publishing it, to glorify the Nazi ideology. After the war his true writings were discovered and restored.
He opposed the anti Semites and the wars, however in his work he predicted the totalitarian states, the wars and the demise of millions. Only after his underacted work has been released, the changes implanted by his sister have been discovered.
A true genius, a free mind who unraveled the mystery of our existence and society in its full complexity. However, to know the truth is power. It has been and is still being abused by evil people, like in the cases you listed.
His philosophy has also been used by the Frankfurter school to lay a foundation for the another ideology called postmodernism. The extended and modern version of it, mixed with Marxism and Feminism is the intersectionality, the philosophical framework for the social justice movement.

'If someone falls on hard times and needs a place to stay, give them a bed to sleep in, but make sure it isn't so comfortable they never want to leave' - my horrible paraphrase of one of my favorite Nietzsche quotes
“Lou was also trying to challenge the norms of society by experimenting to see if men and women can truly be friends without sex getting in the way of the relationship.”
Lol I’m guessing she concluded no.
Society is going backwards now though. Less and less people question what they see and hear from outside sources and many that do question things are immediately shut down and trivialized.
Precisely....People has been conditioned to believe whatever media, or governments say without questioning it even for a minute.....Think a about the current sociopolitical conditions we are going through, plus this Covid bollocks! Everyone is so absort, and what vexes me the most is the fact that people is being bombarded by unfathomable number of poisonous ideologies that are creating confusion chaos and hate which has been separating us instead of uniting us as species....
The question is how do you live with it?

Its not always correct mind you but entertaining nonetheless.

I've never been more excited to watch one of these.
I remember taking a class from an adjunct called "Beyond good and evil" and I'd never taken a philosophy course before. After doing an assignment on trying to find meaning in the Greatest Weight excerpt I immediately went to a used book store in Bangor and bought Thus Spoke Zarathustra, the Gay Science, and On the Genealogy of Morality.
You folks do really great stuff.
I took a philosophy class as part of my major and my professor seemed to be a Christian apologist because he would subtly talk crap about Nietzsche's god is dead quote
@@Spongebrain97 😞 Wish people could just teach the theory, not their own views...
@@Spongebrain97 yeah I had a Christian apologist philosophy teacher but he never introduced his opinion into what we learned, only if he was asked a question on his view or during discussion he would explicitly state his opinion, as we all have our own "philosophy of life" and were encouraged to challenge each others beliefs without being offended
UOW
I Love Nietzsche, as a German American i heard much of his quotes from my mother...... That that does not kill me, only makes me stronger! Once i heard this at the age of 8 i realized the bully at school could not kill me so the next he got in my face i punched him straight in the nose..... opening my eyes afterward expecting a severe beating from this very large kid...... He looked at me with tears in his eyes, blood from his nose...... Why did you hit me? My classmates gave me a standing ovation as the teacher dragged me to the principle office. Thank you Friedrich
I love this channel! I have been binge watching for days now! please keep these delightfully informative videos coming please!!
In my ever expanding conscious self, You are definitely a "The Master Teacher". Every word is clearly understood, mentally digested and intellectually integrated. One of my TOP subscribed channels. With much Gratitude and Appreciation for your work!!! THANK YOU!!!
Let us not forget that Simon is reading a script. Prior to this, he likely knew little or nothing about Nietsche. He does not research and/or write these pieces, though he does present them well. It's a very common misconception on RUclips and elsewhere that the host does it all.
Reading Nietzsche is one of the best things a man can do for himself. Anyone really, but I say man because Friedrich seems to hit a chord with men's issues more than women's. I've been puzzling for years what it means to be an Ubermensch. Nietzsche had a decent outline, but we're living in the modern world and have issues to deal with that Nietzsche didn't forsee. I really think it's finding that balance between a Classical and Modern mindset that hits closest to the mark. Being kind and caring, but fierce and ruthless when it's necessary. I dunno. For me, it's something that puts me in a good mental state every day. I tell myself, be the Ubermensch. Keep your eyes and mind open, keep your head up, but grounded. Avoid too much comfort and distraction. Desire less rather than Aquire more. Remember that the vast majority of humans, regardless of status, are the Last men that Nietzsche projected would be on top, if we allow it. And we did. We're further from the Ubermensch now than we were in Nietzsche's time.
I’ve possible watched every Nietzsche documentary and this one has the most accurate facts. Again thank you Simon
Having the desire to watch these is so much fun... makes me feel smart...love your channel!
I am just starting to study Nietzsche and this video was helpful as an introduction. Thanks.
Thank you, Simon and your associates as well for putting quality content that is captivating, to say the least.
Thanks for the balanced and entertaining narrative on a tricky topic. Your videos are great food for the curious soul.
I have visited quite a few RUclips channels on philosophy but found yours the most excellent due to the facts it was produced n presented in such an interesting way that viewers like myself glued to it from the beginning to the end with your perfect voice (even it was a bit fast for me). The momentum of your short video was smooth n enjoyable. Brilliant work, thanks a lot. I subscribed.
P.S. Your jacket looks great.

Excellent and informative narration as always
I really like this video, like always you made the incredible video with a lot of information. I really like the narrative of the video and the flow of information.
His “madness” is not thought to be a symptom of any physical ailment actually. Most evidence says it was entirely psychological
Can you please link some evidence
@@person3070 read what Carl Jung had to say about nietzsche
Damn! I'd love to hear about Lou Andreas Salomé now.
Actually according to some including Sigmund Freud, Nietzsche was homosexual and contracted syphilis from a male brothel! Lou would've been the 'beard' while he was actually in love with Paul Rée
.
@@sxg1273 cool. I still want to know more about her.
sxg this is pure hearsay. There is no evidence Nietzsche was a homosexual, nor that he ever engaged in homosexual acts.
Me too.
Very Interesting! Appreciate the fresh perspective, well done.
A man ahead of his time.
1:52 Do you even know what you are saying??
"He was nearsighted and got constant headaches from a condition called myopia."
Myopia is just a fancier name for nearsightedness.
No, he does not. He says that the Wagners cared for him at the end of his life, but Richard Wagner himself was already dead in 1883, and Cosima Wagner surely wouldn't care for him after "Der Fall Wagner" and "Nietzsche contra Wagner". Also, he says his last work was "the Antichrist", but that is simply incorrect; there were three works after it ("Dionysus dithramben", "Nietzsche contra Wagner" and "ecce homo").
Even a quick wikipedia search proves him wrong.
Great post as always! You are one of my favorite Brits, almost up there with John Oliver!
Thank you for explaining about Friedrich Nietzsche and The Ubermensch..You did well, made me understand what I wasn't sure of...Always learning and always what to know more, thanks for this video.
Just want to drop by and say thank you. I've been watching your (Simon/Shell's?) videos for years now and learned quite a bit. Between biographics and top tenz, and I'm sure there's a few more out there, you do a great service for the RUclips community. Cheers to you good folks!
Thucydides! You must do an episode on Thucydides.

I genuinely enjoy your content @biographics , especially all the very well made biographic videos . However I couldn't help but notice that in minute 14:27 you said that the city of Basel is in Germany. I just wanted to you to know that Basel is part of switzerland since the year 1501 and therefore has never been never part of germany. Maybe other people already mentioned that before. However I wanted to point that out again.
Keep the good work up and greetings from switzerland!

Der Wanderer über dem Nebelmeer - Caspar David Friedrich
My absolute favorite video yet
Great video
Interesting to learn he actually succumbed to death due to syphilis! I've read so much about his life and his fear of "going soft in the brain" such as his Father. I knew it had to be something diagnostic so thanks for that amazing tidbit ~♡~ I LOVE learning. For we are all forever students and teachers.
Nietzsches life served heavily as the inspiration for Adrian Leverkühn in Thomas Manns letze Roman ‘Doktor Faustus: Das Leben des deutschen Tonsetzers Adrian Leverkühn, erzählt von einem Freunde’. In this novel we see that Mann both worship the german culture, and rejects the National Sosialist regime. He is also famouse for his lecture on Wagner where he sais that the Nazis can have Wagners antisemittism, but they are not entitled to his music. I think Thomas Mann would be a great subject for a future video, further exploring the relationship on german cultural production and the Nazis (ab)use of it.
Can't please everyone @biographics but keep on putting out these phenomenal videos and people will keep watching. Love all of your channels. I just wish highlight history had more videos
Great video 👍
ARRRRRGH --- BRILLIANT, YOU'RE IN EVERY SINGLE INTELLIGENT VIDEO I WATCH. WHERE DO I SEND MY MONEY SO THAT YOUR ADS GO AWAY. :'D
I've only heard of Nietzsche in pop culture, and a fraction of that time there was also some reference to nihilism, neither of which I looked into, so the two have been connected in my mind - without me even noticing until now!
Thank you for this video, I really enjoyed it, learning about Nietzsche and his life, and I am disappointed but unsurprised that this philosopher's works and intent got so ... mangled. I'll definitely be rewatching this video and looking more into the topic, it was Quite Interesting! ;-)
I do not accept that your need to put in ads is absolute. I believe that it’s just your way of keeping us down.
I love these videos. Rock on 🤘!!
"We are living in a Nietzsche world. It's just a shame he didn't live to see it."

I am deeply enjoying this silent RUclips update of "Most replayed" it shows heavily that people skip the ads.
Huh, now that you brought her up and I read a bit about her, I'd love to see a Biographics of Lou Andreas-Salomé. Fascinating person.
Very good video! Nietzsche is really dangerous: one might misunderstand Shakespeare's works for movies and TV ... It is, nonetheless, very good to see some t's crossed and some i's dotted - to show people there's more in Nietzche than meets the eye is very good TV!
Love this channel!!!!
I enjoyed this thanks.
can you make a video of the un-philosopher albert camus , like why his life was so different from other philosophers
I love your channel sir! Very informative on my favorite subject history. Your very well spoken and I feel your very up the middle and dont favor political bias. I like that. Keep up the good work
Thanks Biographics.
Outstanding!
He likes giving Eastern philosophers something to bow and kowtow to.
Please do Alistair Crowley! The L. Ron Hubbard video made me very curious as to his life.
Good analysis
the best video of simon's career as RUclips
Best presenter 👍🏻
History! Yes!
All the biographies are technically history
True. But I get excited when Biographics post.
If you really want to learn the history of this matter ruclips.net/video/jkhbSLExYbc/видео.html this is a BBC documentary on the life of Nietzsche which is much better
We are posting 4 times a week, so your excitement is multiple times weekly.
Fantastic bio
great work man plz more videos about philosophers
Aldous Huxley, Samuel Johnson, John Anthony West, also not sure if it would qualify but "Quetzalcoatl" aka Kukulkan would be super interesting in my opinion! Keep up the good work
