Rocky L. Ho Chapter 3 Title: Friedrich Nietzsche: Master and Slave Morality. Quote: “As a reality it is the fundamental face of all history, let us be so far honest towards ourselves!”

Expectations: I expect to understand the topic within Master and Slavery Morality. What interest other readers and how to apply them in reality.

Book Review: Friedrich Nietzsche, a German philosopher, has viewed the sources of modern existence and deconstructionism. He has argued about the society’s health said that the individuals has been practicing with the use of will to power to drive into the domination and exploitation within the inferior. From what I understand, slavery is a human being who has been working under a master, to be able to repay their debt, or who has been sold to another person. Freedom are their main goal to achieve happiness. While a master is also a human being wherein slaves was given, sold to them.

Things I have learned: I learned that it is hardwork that can free most of the slaves. They need to do everything what the master has ordered them to do.
