"I don't like it." -- Why? -- “Because I am not yet suitable for it.” -- Who has ever answered like this?

Nietzsche

 

 

The question of "Who am I?" may be one of them. The first thing you should ask when thinking about your existence is whether you are qualified to ask such a question. Make sure that there is nothing you can't see in the blind spot though it looks clear to others. From "Beyond Good and Evil" by the German philosopher (translated by Michio Takeyama).
