THUS SPAKE ZARATHUSTRA

Part 2Chapter XXXIX · Poets.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche·1 min read·107 of 146

People have sometimes said that Nietzsche had no sense of humour. I have no intention of defending him here against such foolish critics; I should only like to point out to the reader that we have him here at his best, poking fun at himself, and at his fellow-poets (see Note on Chapter LXIII., pars. 16, 17, 18, 19, 20).
