Quote of the day

Pluralism is the properly philosophical way of thinking, the one invented by philosophy; the only guarantor of freedom in the concrete spirit, the only principle of a violent atheism. The Gods are dead but they have died of laughing, on hearing one God claim to be the only one, 'Is not precisely this godliness, that there are gods but no God?'

– Gilles Deleuze, Nietzsche and philosophy

Oh, how I love Deleuze. I can't get enough of his way of writing. It has such poetry to it. Lovely quote. Just lovely.

I must admit I haven't got very far with this as yet. I think I tried reading it too soon. I just want to read Nietzsche at the moment, not about him.
