I was the first to discover the Truth I was the first to feel with the senses -kissing lies as lies I have chosen for myself said the Immoralist as a marker of distinction and a badge of honor I am proud to have this word that prepares me against all humanity (Friedrich Nietzsche: Why I Am Destiny)

Nietszche was an extraordinary philosopher, until now his ideas are still alive even though he has been dead for more than 100 years. Philosophers who pioneered the era of postmodernism, the idea of Nihilism is very influential in the world to this day. Through his works he also overturned all values and morals. Ecce Homo’s work is the most confusing autobiographical work of existing autobigraphy writing.

The true meaning of Ecce Homo is Man or Look at Man. However, in this book it is written Look at Him, he is meant by Nietzsche. This book is very interesting for exploring Nietzsche’s reflections on his life journey before being sentenced to insanity.
