finally, i would also note the role of LOVE in nietzsche's discourse. the core of his personal ethics viz. the overman--his only prescriptive moment--might be summed up in his idea "amor fati," or "love of fate." this is where one can look back upon all of one's past experience--all the pain, all the joy, all the success and failure and odi et amo alike--and one accepts it all. think of freud's repression in reverse: strength, for nietzschean, is the totally unrepressed psyche, one that has swallowed everything thrown at it whole, who LOVES themselves and their own history, and by extension LOVES the enemy insofar as the true enemy is also an opportunity for self-perfection; one LOVES all of reality, one LOVES challenge, etc. etc.

hence the laughter, the grin, etc. that usually accompanies the nietzschean figure--it's a type of crazed openness to experience as such, a type of infinite love in-itself--perverse, perhaps, both something to reckon with nonetheless
