7. Existence / D. Theories of Reality / 5. Naturalism
I only want thinking that is anchored in body, senses and earth [Nietzsche]
     Full Idea: I am not interested …in ways of thinking that are not anchored in the body and the senses and in the earth.
     From: Friedrich Nietzsche (Unpublished Notebooks 1884-85 [1884], 26[352])
     A reaction: Exhibit A for Nietzsche as Naturalist. Indeed, this could be a manifesto for the whole school. I totally and completely and utterly agree with Nietzsche's assertion!. I see the 'anchor' as two-way: thought connects to earth, and thought arises from it.
