So my seminar is tackling the genealogy of morals, and I have to say, I think I like what Nietzsche is getting at, more than what he says, if you catch my drift. Like, 'we should recognise that we are constrained, but also that we have a capacity to live better lives'? yea! but 'altruism and charity are weak and misguided'? nah!! So it's like reading a soliloquy, with a very passionate voice, and a character who really needs to trim that neckbeard.
Anyway, my response was getting the Hass version of the Beatitudes stuck in my head, soooooo sorry, freddie.

Also, one of the interns has her first ethics course this semester, and if we're talking verses, I'm really quite in the mood for the kind of perspective the young'uns sing about -

"These Hands" (Watch on YouTube)

And though the walls are rising now, you may think hope is gone

These hands of mine, they are the proof of all that can be done

So whoever is your neighbor, link hands and make a stand

And we will face the future with these hands!
