"And there reigns everywhere an indecent haste, as if something has been neglected if the young man of twenty-three is not yet 'finished and ready', does not yet know the answer to the 'chief question': which calling? — A higher kind of human being, excuse me for saying, doesn't think much of 'callings', the reason being he knows himself called. . . . He takes his time, he has plenty of time, he gives no thought whatsoever to being 'finished and ready,' at the age of thirty one is, as regards high culture, a beginner, a child.
Our overcrowded grammar schools, our overloaded, stupified grammar-school teachers, are a scandal: one may perhaps have motives for defending this state of things, as the professors of Heidelberg recently did — there are no grounds for doing so."
What did he mean by this?

People think that a "real man" is some endpoint you reach. Nietzsche says there is no such thing, no endpoint, and that thinking about life and learning in such a way is limiting.

>buying the wageslave meme
>he thinks he graduated from the world's library before 31
>education is for select few people who should be freer from plebeian duties to the state.
>>8065297
But anon, he thinks that wageslaves should exist. Unless that is what you're getting at.

Government schools are shit.
Thank you Nietzsche, you self help master

You're still a retard by age 30 what makes you think you found your 'calling' or career by then.
It's obviously a reference to 'being' and 'becoming', as would later be picked up by Heidegger/etc.
'Are' you something (and ergo, are you 'being you')? In the past, present and future; is there a 'you'?
Or are you 'becoming something'? And if so, what are you 'becoming'? 'You'? When and how will you 'become'?
Are you merely 'becoming' (answering a call), or are you already 'being' (called)?
>>8065864
Nietzsche didn't even believe in 'being', you fucking fraud.
Get outta here.
>>8065871
He believed in becoming
>>8065952
he believed in becoming as the being of becoming negating being as the being of being
