Nietzsche, huh? Not bad, have you read Beyond Good and Evil? A bit too sophistic but I didn't mind his short little words of wisdom.
'Without music, life would be a mistake'
'Where there is the tree of knowledge, there is always Paradise: so say the most ancient and most modern serpents'
Currently: Machiavelli - Il principe
Next up:
Epic of Gilgamesh

Yes, I've read BGE. It's the type of book that begs for a re-read.
I'm not sure Nietzsche would consider sophistic as pejorative. He is just as much a rhetorician as he is a philosopher. Didn't he praise Protagoras in Gay Science, or was it Twilight? I don't remember.
Posture, posture, posture. Boring.
Reading pic related. Just 30 pages in but I can tell that I'm going to love it.

Right. A good book. Some working knowledge of Calculus, Theology, Quantum Physics, French, Spanish, Latin, and WWII engineering and history is required.
