Nice (France), November 14, 1886: Letter to Franz Overbeck

Dear friend,

[....] The antinomy of my current situation, of the form of my existence, consists in this: everything that I need in order to be philosophus radicalis—freedom from profession, wife, child, society, fatherland, faith, etc. etc.—I equally suffer as deprivations, inasmuch as I have the good fortune to be a living creature and not merely an analyzing machine or objectivizing apparatus. I have to add that this juxtaposition of necessities and deprivations is driven to extremes by the lack of an even moderately durable health. For in my moments of health I feel the deprivations less keenly. Further, I absolutely do not know how to bring together the five conditions that would restore my delicate health to a bearable modicum. Finally, the worst possible situation would prevail if in order to attain those five conditions of health I had to deprive myself of the eight freedoms of the philosophus radicalis.— This strikes me as the most objective account of my rather complicated situation ... Excuse me! Or, rather, you may have a good laugh at this! [....]
