The New Beginning (aphoristically?)

Some wish to seem wise by overcomplication. Others wish to seem wise by oversimplification. Unseemly – the will to wisdom is at root – overdone.

  1. Say more about “will to wisdom”.

  2. Why? So you can argue with me? Or perhaps write a snide post about me in your blog? Tell me I have only 3 brain cells? I think not. . .
    If you want to know more about the “will to wisdom” read part one of “beyond Good and Evil” or Book FIve of “The Gay Science” Or “Human All-to-Human” book II part 1 #s 378, 366, 246, 232. Twighlight of the Idols, Maxims and Arrows, # 3. Or Zarathustra, Part II “on the famous wise men” and “On scholars”
    Use these answers.

  3. I would like to read those works; in the meantime, I would still be interested in your thoughts. For my part, I will have more of the “high-spiritedness” and less of the “asshole” (to borrow from your comment over at overlyconcius)… or to borrow from you again, more of the “live” and less of the “slightly-revolting”.

  4. Call it whatever you will, but I don’t have the energy to respond – to you. My delicate sensibilities have been offended, and I really have nothing to say to you.
    But I would like to point out one thing: winning an argument on the internet is like winning the special olympics. You won, but you’re still a retard. This applies to everyone. I don’t want to argue.

  5. Oh, and additionally, its all in the Categories. If it isn’t in the Categories, it isn’t worht knowing or important or well-thought.
