Conversation with Nietzsche

“He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche

Me: With self-imposed purpose, the method by which one lives life becomes fruitful, as any hardship is known only to be a temporary cost for enacting one's freedom.

Nietzsche (perhaps?): Self-authorship is necessary and there is creative potential in suffering.

I'll leave it there as I don't want to put words in his mouth!

What do you think?

Brilliant 👍 👏 

It's an intresting take on his writing but is very much apt to the orginal text. It's quite intresting to see you use his writing as a conversation!
