25. Social Practice / E. Policies / 1. War / a. Just wars

18320	To renounce war is to renounce the grand life [Nietzsche]
	Full Idea: One has renounced grand life when one renounces war.
	From: Friedrich Nietzsche (Twilight of the Idols [1889], 4.3)
	A reaction: Nietzsche was a medical orderly in the 1870 Franco-Prussian war, so he had seen it at first hand. I think the machine gun and the heavy bomber would have changed his attitude to warfare. He sounds a bit silly now. Nostalgia for the Iliad.

25. Social Practice / E. Policies / 5. Education / c. Teaching

2908	There is a need for educators who are themselves educated [Nietzsche]
	Full Idea: There is a need for educators who are themselves educated.
	From: Friedrich Nietzsche (Twilight of the Idols [1889], 7.5)
