A reflection on Health by Friedrich Nietzsche
The most esteemed medical formula of morality "virtue is the health of the soul", should be transformed, to be usable, at least in the following: "Your virtue is the health of YOUR soul" because there is no health itself Same. And all attempts to define a subject of that kind have failed in a thunderous way.
To determine what health means for your own body, everything depends on your goal, your horizon, your strength, your impulses, your mistakes and especially the ideals and ghosts of your soul.
That is why there are countless body health; And the more one allows himself to raise his head to the individual and incomparable man, the more the dogma of the equality of men is disapproved, the more our physicians also lose the concept of normal health along with that of a normal diet and normal course of the illness.
And only then will the time come when it will be possible to reflect on the health and illness of the soul, and establish the most appropriate virtue for the health of each one, which by the way may appear for one as the virtue contrary to that of The health of another...The Jovial Science - Friedrich Nietzsche
His literary work has been of utmost importance for the conscious progress on taboo subjects. Always keeping a humanitarian look from a posture never seen before. At least, with the magnificence that he realized.
