Nice, December 2, 1887: Letter to Georg Brandes
Esteemed sir,
[....] On my scale of experiences and events the rarer, the more distant, the finer registers predominate over the normal, middling ones. I also have (to speak like an old musician, which in fact I am) an ear for quarter-tones. Finally—and no doubt this above all is what makes my books obscure—I have a mistrust of dialectic, even of reasons. Whether a man is ready to call something true or not seems to me to be more a matter of the degree of his courage. (Only rarely do I have the courage to affirm what I actually know.)
Your expression “aristocratic radicalism” is very good. It is, if you will allow me, the shrewdest thing I have seen about myself so far. [....]
Are you a musician? Just now a work of mine for chorus and orchestra, “Hymn to Life,” is being published. Of my various musical compositions, this one is intended to survive and to be sung one day “in memory of me,” assuming, of course, that enough of the rest of me survives. You see what posthumous thoughts occupy my mind. But a philosphy like mine is like a tomb—it seals one off from the living. Bene vixit qui bene latuit ["Who has hidden himself well has lived well"—Horace]—that’s what is written on the gravestone of Descartes. An epitaph if there ever was one!
[....] I gave up my university professorship. I’m three-quarters blind. |
