Nietzsche's love of Emerson

Post by Soul_of_Shu »

Some eloquent biographical archaeology into the kindred psyche's of Nietzsche and Emerson ...

Here out of instinct or grace we seek
soulmates in these galleries of hieroglyph and glass,
where mutual longings and sufferings of love
are laid bare in transfigured exhibition of our hearts,
we who crave deep secrets and mysteries,
as elusive as the avatars of our dreams.

Thanks for sharing! These types of cross-cultural philosophical connections fascinate me. There is definitely Nietzsche connection to Wordsworth and Coleridge too.
