We need a critique of moral values.

One has taken the value of these "values" as given, as factual, as beyond all question; one has hitherto never doubted or hesitated in the slightest degree in supposing "the good man" to be of greater value than "the evil man," of great value in the sense of furthering the advancement and prosperity of man in general.

The value of these values themselves must first be called into question.

Friedrich Nietzsche
July 1887

The lordly right of giving names extends so far that one should allow oneself to conceive the origin of language itself as an expression of power on the part of the rulers: they say "this is this and this," they seal every thing and event with a sound and, as it were, take possession of it.
