Get the nietzsche mug.An absolute brilliant German philosopher that is often overlooked, overshadowed, underappreciated and/or completely misunderstood. He could deconstruct logical aspects of human concepts that would blow your mind. Even people like Albert Einstein or Rene Descartes would never win; in an argument against Nietzsche. At least, according to Nietzsche's train of thought and his natural strict logic composition; in regards to metaphysics.
Rene Descartes always focuses on "essence" and "truth"; while Nietzsche argues that essence and truth are not real and are only ideas or figments of illusions in our conscious minds. Nietzsche focuses on the subconscious; while Descartes focuses on the conscious mind. "I think, therefore I am."
Nietzsche: You do not "think"!!. You only "believe" that "you think". Your brain is an organ struggling for life, just like your heart, liver, kidneys and everything else!
Descartes: I do not understand what you are saying, Nietzsche!
Nietzsche: You have missed the big picture entirely and focused on the irrelevant, simple matters.
Descartes: I still don't think I hear you!
Nietzsche: Likewise.

Albert Einstein: Doing something over and over again and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity.
Friedrich Nietzsche: No it isn't, Einstein! Doing something over and over again is NOT insanity. The very fact that you use the aspect/essence of "insanity" contradicts the whole concept of: A HAPPENING. A happening is just exactly that: A HAPPENING. An indifferent, recurrent happening. And it will always function in our indifferent universe as: a happening. It is only human judgement and interpretation that: a happening; will be thought of as "insanity". Therefore, doing something over and over again and expecting a different result is NOT insanity. Only human minds can determine what doing something over and over again is. Conclusion: IT IS NEITHER "INSANITY" NOR "SANITY"! IT IS A HAPPENING!
Einstein, Descartes and Everbody else: WOW! MIND = BLOWN

Get the nietzsche mug.some german weirdo from the 19th century who became today the hippest philosopher on earth. basically he mixes affected nihilism with pubescent fantasies of unlimited power. which is why all the smug middle class teenies and twentysomethings love him.
plus he is an atheist, which is soooo edgy in 2013.
