I tried reading this but it was almost entirely over my head. Got about 100 pages in.

One day I'll give her another crack.

Lol does anyone else think Nietzsche audio books are redundant?

All of the best parts have to be read a few times to sink in completely, which would be a pain in the ass with an audio book. I've never like audio books though because I've always felt like the narrator just creates another degree of separation between the reader and the author, reading Nietzsche in English already gives you the added separation of translation.

"It was suffering and incapacity that created all afterworlds - this, and that brief madness of bliss which is experienced only by those who suffer deeply.
Weariness that wants to reach the ultimate with one leap, with one fatal leap, a poor ignorant weariness that does not want to want any more: this created all gods and afterworlds."

"The time is gone when mere accidents could still happen to me; and what could still come to me now that was not mine already? What returns, what finally comes home to me, is my own self and what of myself has long been in strange lands and scattered among all things and accidents."
