Re-thinking Philosophers

My professor shared this quote with me today from Beyond Good and Evil:

“Gradually it has become clear to me what every great philosophy so far has been: namely, the personal confession of its author and a kind of involuntary and unconscious memoir; also that the moral (or immoral) intentions in every philosophy constituted the real germ of life from which the whole plant had grown.”


To me, it brings this whole new level of thought in my opinion of philosophers.
 
So, readers, go forth and ponder.
