On Nietzsche, from the Pillars of Unbelief series, by Peter Kreeft, Boston College.
"He scorned reason as well as faith, often deliberately contradicted himself, said that "a sneer is infinitely more noble that a syllogism" and appealed to passion, rhetoric and even deliberate hatred rather than reason.
"He saw love as 'the greatest danger' and morality as mankind's worst weakness."
See Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil, in Great Books of the Western World (second edition, 60 Vol., 1990) volume 43
