Beyond Good and Evil

$9.22

SUPPOSING that Truth is a woman—what then? Is there not ground for

suspecting that all philosophers, in so far as they have been dogmatists, have

failed to understand women—that the terrible seriousness and clumsy

importunity with which they have usually paid their addresses to Truth, have

been unskilled and unseemly methods for winning a woman? Certainly she has

never allowed herself to be won; and at present every kind of dogma stands with

sad and discouraged mien—IF, indeed, it stands at all! For there are scoffers who

maintain that it has fallen, that all dogma lies on the ground—nay more, that it is

at its last gasp. But to speak seriously, there are good grounds for hoping that all

dogmatizing in philosophy, whatever solemn, whatever conclusive and decided

airs it has assumed, may have been only a noble puerilism and tyronism; and

probably the time is at hand when it will be once and again understood WHAT

has actually sufficed for the basis of such imposing and absolute philosophical

edifices as the dogmatists have hitherto reared: perhaps some popular

superstition of immemorial time (such as the soul-superstition, which, in the

form of subject- and ego-superstition, has not yet ceased doing mischief):

perhaps some play upon words, a deception on the part of grammar, or an

audacious generalization of very restricted, very personal, very human—all-toohuman

facts.
