"You may feel that this viewpoint is a bit rough or judgmental. Well, frankly, it is. If you feel that it’s not quite right — that no one should see anyone as beneath him — Nietzsche would say that the slave in you is talking and taking control of your perspective. You need to take control of that impulse before it takes control of you! Face it: Greatness is exemplary; it’s individual. If you want to dare to be great, you have to recognize that some things aren’t great; instead, they’re weak or lowly. If you can’t handle that kind of judgmental
heat, get out of the kitchen, Nietzsche says! Perhaps slave life would be more comfortable for you."
