    Nietzsche was more than a nihilists, above post. He strived for mankind to break the chains of its imagined limitations. this quote about delusions is a shot at religion, but the second part about truth is key. Using science and reason to rise up and become more. Throw off the yoke of whatever enslaves you.

    Nietzsche lived in a kind of subconscious denial of God since losing his Pastor father. He ended his days meekly following his mother around in her house. In between, much sound and fury, signifying...?

    "A Philosophy of Universality," O. M. Aivanhov, and "Climb the Highest Mountain," Mark Prophet, may be helpful.
