What is good? Everything that heightens the feeling of power in man,
the will to power, power itself. What is bad? Everything that is born
of weakness. Not contentedness but more power; not peace but war; not
virtue but fitness. The weak and the failures shall perish: first
principle of our love of man. And they shall even be given every
possible assistance. What is more harmful than any vice? Active pity
for all the failures and all the weak: Christianity.
-- Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900)
