Nietzsche on the Journey of Becoming and What It Means to Be a Free Spirit

“…become master over yourself, master of your own good qualities… acquire power over your aye and no and learn to hold and withhold them in accordance with your higher aims…”

BY MARIA POPOVA

“No one can build you the bridge on which you, and only you, must cross the river of life,” Friedrich Nietzsche(October 15, 1844–August 25, 1900) wrote in his magnificent meditation on how to find yourself. But the building of that bridge requires a special kind of willingness, a singular capacity for self-liberation — something Nietzsche explores in his 1879 masterpieceHuman, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits (public library | free ebook), which he aptly describes as a “discouraging-encouraging work” dedicated to the romantic ideal of the free spirit.
