The Movie Of My Life – Film Noir

Well this makes sense. You know, Nietzsche styled himself as Polish nobility.

The clan came out of Poland, like so many other families of Eastern Germany, at the time of the sad, vain wars. Legend maintains that it was noble in its day and Nietzsche himself liked to think so. The name, says Elisabeth, was originally Nietzschy. “Germany is a great nation,” Nietzsche would say, “only because its people have so much Polish blood in their veins…. I am proud of my Polish descent. I remember that in former times a Polish noble, by his simple veto, could overturn the resolution of a popular assembly. There were giants in Poland in the time of my forefathers.” He wrote a tract with the French title L’Origine de la famille de Nietzsche and presented the manuscript to his sister, as a document to be treasured and held sacred. She tells us that he was fond of maintaining that the Nietzsches had suffered greatly and fallen from vast grandeur for their opinions, religious and political. He had no proof of this, but it pleased him to think so. — The Philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche by Henry Louis Mencken

The Movie Of Your Life Is Film Noir

So what if you’re a little nihilistic at times? Life with meaning is highly over-rated.

Quiz – How Machiavellian Are You?

As a graduate of a fine Jesuit run institution I should be right up there. Machiavelli had to have been mentioned in almost every class, right along side the perennial mention of Maslow. I write this as I stare up at my copy of Machiavelli on Modern Leadership by Michael A. Ledeen.

You Are Somewhat Machiavellian

You’re not going to mow over everyone to get ahead… But you’re also powerful enough to make things happen for yourself. You understand how the world works, even when it’s an ugly place. You just don’t get ugly yourself – unless you have to!

Scientific Cultural Theory Quiz

He shoots, he scores. OK, looks like me. I’m not too sure about the ‘some people are better…’ part but I do not think God’s grace was factored into the quiz. Also, I would be careful about saying I’m too much of a rugged individualist. I follow rubrics to a tee. It’s interesting that I’m more of a fatalist and more hierarchical than Fr. Jim Tucker. Anyway, that’s me – I’m the man!

The Center
You scored 84% individualism, 28% fatalism, 92% hierarchy, and 28% egalitarianism!
You adhere to both the Individualist and Hierarchist cultures. This means you are the Establishment, or “The Man.” You run the system, or at least agree with how it’s run. Any inequalities that arise are justified, because some people are just better or more deserving than others.
