for those who dwell in the deliriums in language. If you find the need to speak, you are already categorizing and hierarchizing life, therefore denying it. In other words, language is the first nihilism. This is why the literature and, even worse, the philosophy will always remain sterile, mediocre and nothing but pure entertainment.
