26. Natural Theory / A. Speculations on Nature / 2. Natural Purpose / b. Limited purposes

4422	The end need not be the goal, as in the playing of a melody (and yet it must be completed) [Nietzsche]
	Full Idea: Not every end is the goal; the end of a melody is not its goal; and yet: as long as the melody has not reached its end, it also hasn't reached its goal. A parable.
	From: Friedrich Nietzsche (The Wanderer and his Shadow [1880], §204)
	A reaction: A nice message for Aristotle, that there is no simple separation of ends and means.
