H. L. Mencken on Nietzsche, saying he "was a Greek born two thousand years too late." , writing that his Hellenism was not the gay neo-Platonism inherited by the Christian Fathers but the older homeric spirit that saw existence not as a moral phenomenon, but as an aesthetic one.
“Men are tired to disgust of money-economy. They hope for salvation from somewhere or other, for some real thing of honor and chivalry, of inward nobility, of unselfishness and duty.”
~Oswald Spengler
