Nietzsche's "Not Enough!"

"Not enough!-- It is not enough to prove something, one also has to seduce or elevate people to it. That is why the man of knowledge should learns how to speak his wisdom: and often in such a way that it sounds like folly!"

                                                             from Nietzsche's Daybreak, s. 330, R.J. Hollingdale transl

As I was reading this quote, I started to think about the way people act and how this quote really relates to what happens in our every day life.

People, specially man are very manipulative when it comes to convincing others, I have nothing against man but is the way they approach people and how good they are when telling a story. They really want to convince others to believe it the way they want, but people in general are very seductive when it comes to proving a point. 

Sometimes people go all the way to prove a point and like the quote says " often in such a way that it sounds like folly!", people might exaggerate to make a statement. I sometimes do that because as a person, you want people to really pay attention to what you are saying, but also believe it. It is not enough just saying something as it is, you also have to prove it because you don't want people to misinterpret or mislead you.
