"التحية الوحيدة الصالحة للفكر مثل فكر نيتشه هي استخدامه بالضبط، لتشويهه، لجعله يئن ويحتج"
— Michel Foucault
Simplified Meaning:
When we come across powerful ideas, like those from the philosopher Nietzsche, we shouldn’t just admire them quietly. Instead, we should actively engage with these ideas, even if that means changing them or challenging them. It’s like taking a recipe and experimenting with it in your kitchen—mixing up the ingredients to create something new, even if the recipe seems perfect as it is. By doing this, you show respect to the original idea because you’re using it to think deeper and push boundaries. Imagine a scientist who builds on previous research by questioning old theories to discover new truths—progress often comes from testing and stretching existing knowledge. Similarly, we can honor philosophical thoughts by putting them to work and seeing what new paths they can lead us down.
