Friedrich Nietzsche: "To Steem is to create" (1891)

in philosophy •  7 years ago 

Hi guys, I just found a quote from Nietzsche that is entirely applicable to Steemit. In Thus Spoke Zarathustra (1891), Nietzsche writes about Steemit and says:

To steem is to create: hear this, you creators! Steeming itself is of all esteemed things the most estimable treasure. Through steeming alone there is value: and without steeming, the nut of existence would be hollow.’

Don't believe me? You can find this passage in the paragraph entitled "On the Thousand and One Goals".
