A propos de ce livre
"The years — during and above all after Zarathustra — were a state of distress without equal. One pays dearly for being immortal: one dies several times within a single lifetime. — There is something I call the rancune of the great: every great thing — a work, a deed — once accomplished, turns at once against the one who did it. By the very fact that he has done it, he is now weak: he can no longer bear his deed; he can no longer look it in the face. To have behind one something one should never have willed, something in which the knot of humanity’s fate is tied — and now to have it upon one’s shoulders!… It almost crushes… The rancune of the great!"
