Friedrich Nietzsche

    It seems that in or­der to in­scribe them­selves upon the heart of hu­man­ity with ever­last­ing claims, all great things have first to wander about the earth as enorm­ous and awe-in­spir­ing ca­ri­ca­tures:

    Whether we call it “civil­iz­a­tion,” or “hu­man­ising,” or “pro­gress,” which now dis­tin­guishes the European, whether we call it simply, without praise or blame, by the polit­ical for­mula the demo­cratic move­ment in Europe—be­hind all the moral and polit­ical fore­grounds poin­ted to by such for­mu­las, an im­mense physiolo­gical pro­cess goes on, which is ever ex­tend­ing the pro­cess of the as­sim­il­a­tion of Europeans, their in­creas­ing de­tach­ment from the con­di­tions un­der which, cli­mat­ic­ally and hered­it­ar­ily, united races ori­gin­ate, their in­creas­ing in­de­pend­ence of every def­in­ite mi­lieu, that for cen­tur­ies would fain in­scribe it­self with equal de­mands on soul and body—that is to say, the slow emer­gence of an es­sen­tially su­per­na­tional and no­madic spe­cies of man, who pos­sesses, physiolo­gic­ally speak­ing, a max­imum of the art and power of ad­apt­a­tion as his typ­ical dis­tinc­tion. This pro­cess of the evolving European, which can be re­tarded in its tempo by great re­lapses, but will per­haps just gain and grow thereby in vehe­mence and depth—the still-ra­ging storm and stress of “na­tional sen­ti­ment” per­tains to it, and also the an­arch­ism which is ap­pear­ing at present—this pro­cess will prob­ably ar­rive at res­ults on which its na­ive propag­at­ors and pan­egyr­ists, the apostles of “mod­ern ideas,” would least care to reckon. The same new con­di­tions un­der which on an av­er­age a lev­el­ling and me­diocrising of man will take place—a use­ful, in­dus­tri­ous, vari­ously ser­vice­able, and clever gregari­ous man—are in the highest de­gree suit­able to give rise to ex­cep­tional men of the most dan­ger­ous and at­tract­ive qual­it­ies. For, while the ca­pa­city for ad­apt­a­tion, which is every day try­ing chan­ging con­di­tions, and be­gins a new work with every gen­er­a­tion, al­most with every dec­ade, makes the power­ful­ness of the type im­possible; while the col­lect­ive im­pres­sion of such fu­ture Europeans will prob­ably be that of nu­mer­ous, talk­at­ive, weak-willed, and very handy work­men who re­quire a mas­ter, a com­mander, as they re­quire their daily bread; while, there­fore, the demo­crat­ising of Europe will tend to the pro­duc­tion of a type pre­pared for slavery in the most subtle sense of the term: the strong man will ne­ces­sar­ily in in­di­vidual and ex­cep­tional cases, be­come stronger and richer than he has per­haps ever been be­fore—ow­ing to the un­pre­ju­diced­ness of his school­ing, ow­ing to the im­mense vari­ety of prac­tice, art, and dis­guise. I meant to say that the demo­crat­ising of Europe is at the same time an in­vol­un­tary ar­range­ment for the rear­ing of tyr­ants—tak­ing the word in all its mean­ings, even in its most spir­itual sense.

    It might even be pos­sible that what con­sti­tutes the value of those good and re­spec­ted things, con­sists pre­cisely in their be­ing in­si­di­ously re­lated, knot­ted, and cro­cheted to these evil and ap­par­ently op­posed things—per­haps even in be­ing es­sen­tially identical with them.
