RKS Literature: The Hierarchy of Good (Friedrich Nietzsche)

“The hierarchy of good, however, is not fixed and identical at all times. If someone prefers revenge to justice, he is moral by the standard of an earlier culture, yet by the standard of the present culture he is immoral. ‘Immoral’ then indicates that someone has not felt, or not felt strongly enough, the higher, finer, more spiritual motives which the new culture of the time has brought with it.”

Friedrich Nietzsche, “Human, All Too Human”, 1878.
