i don't understand enough to speak about this passage. there is though that I 
could say i find this that would make of Nietzsche a very crual individual in 
saying that way so much with determination that the pitified controls the one 
who can help him/her. indeed, it is for no reason that there are positive 
sides in life, where the sad people recover from their bad days.

would you please apologize the brievity of such a message, as I go to school 
tomorrow and don't want to miss my  very difficult to follow tired, boring 
course on "the translucid paradize hidden somewhere in the concept of the 
dreamish holydays". :) thank you./

PS. give me an impression if this message goes in the direction arrowed by
