Nietzsche (Friedrich Nietzsche)

Friedrich Nietzsche was a 19th-century philosopher known for challenging traditional morality, religion, and ideas of truth. He believed that humans create their own values and that life’s meaning is subjective. Nietzsche emphasized individual strength, overcoming weaknesses, and embracing life's passions, famously describing the concept of the “Übermensch” (Overman) as an ideal of self-mastery. He also critically examined concepts like guilt and morality, urging people to think independently rather than accept societal norms blindly. His ideas influenced existentialism, psychology, and modern thought on personal development and morality.
