Could there be anything more ineffectual than "comparative philosophy"? Note that it is neatly removed from philosophy by one word - "comparative". Yet what philosophy today is not comparative? The philosophers of today are mere onlookers and jugglers of other people's words. They are parasites! Their aim in life is not to learn the truth, but to add to the literature of their genre.
When I read the attempts of these quasi-men to analyze, and even criticize the likes of Nietzsche and Kierkegaard . . . I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
"We are more comfortable with the Infinite these days" they tell me. And there is pride in their voices. A pride that does not infect me. For these cold ones have fashioned their comfort through mental trickery. I see them hiding there behind a hundred new categories, and a thousand new books - and they dare not even peep around the side.
