Where the Stoics go wrong, and how Nietzsche gets it right


“If Stoic wisdom helps you to live the way you want to, then go for it. But if, like me, you have a problem with its passive approach, its reduction of your emotional life towards equanimity, its contradictory way of talking about the standards for yourself compared to the standards for others, then I encourage you to look elsewhere. For me, Nietzsche’s philosophy provides a much more realistic and exciting way forward.”
