What does it take to be a True Man (superman?) ?
They are those true men, those who are no longer animal, the philosophers, artists and saints. (159)

What does it mean to be a true man? Especially, what does it mean to be a saint?

it does not matter so much the method and circumstances under which one examines (life) but that he actually does examine it. - Joyce

I think Nietzsche would disagree. He doesn't want us to just examine it, but to become something, a 'true man'. But how do you become a true person?
