Here are some interesting philosophical questions from Nietzsche that I still don't know the answers to...

1. How can we take control (be the helmsman) of our existence? Through self-knowledge, self-enlightenment (160)? Why is this a metaphysical goal (160)? How is this the 'perfecting of nature' (160)?

2. Where does animal end and man begin? (158)

3. What is man's reason for existence? Is it for dramatic poetry (160)? The production of great men (161)?
apologies for the non-pc language;just quoting.
