Before good and evil

A friend defended a dissertation on Nietzsche today. (Congratulations!) Among many other things I learned in the ensuing conversations, I found out that the hammer-wielding philosopher's entire oeuvre, including his notebooks, has been digitized. Like this page, from a notebook from 1874. It's comforting, somehow, to know that even he threw out drafts.
