When Riefenstahl asked Hitler what he liked to read, he allegedly replied,
βSchopenhauer.β
βNot Nietzsche?β
Riefenstahl asked.
βNo, I canβt really do much with Nietzsche,β
Riefenstahl recalls Hitler telling her.
βHe is more an artist than a philosopher; he doesnβt have the crystal-clear understanding of Schopenhauer. Of course, I value Nietzsche as a genius. He writes possibly the most beautiful language that German literature has to offer us today, BUT HE (NIETZSCHE) IS NOT MY GUIDE.β
