THE CASE OF NIETZSCHE Friedrich Nietzsche is about as good a case as there is on record of a genius blasted by migraine.

Nietzsche is an unsystematic writer, though none the less powerful on that account.

Nietzsche, on the contrary, with his contempt for the morality of Christianity as the morality of slaves and weaklings, with his eulogy of the blond brute striding over forgotten multitudes of his weaker fellows to a stultifying isolation apartNietzsche is self-realization in the mad-house.
