One of the best things of being German is being able to read Nietzsche in its original. It's written in such a sophisticated and beautiful German.

[@christianbruckner6626]

Womit würdest du anfangen, wenn man noch nichts von ihm gelesen hat?

What are the the differences you would say that you learn from original German compared to English translation.

[@JermaineWV]

I began with 48 laws of power because I heard one of my favorite artist speak on it. Once I read it I was hooked. Ironically that same artist ended up in collaboration with Robert to do the 50th law. All of his books are classic though my favorite Robert Greene book is the Law of Nature.

[@agenthunt7867]

Thank you, Robert Greene. I am entirely grateful for your books. I have read all your work and I'm in anticipation of your new project that is yet to be released, titled, The Law of the Sublime.

Greetings! Mr. Greene, I hope you're in immaculate health and spirits. I have had the fortune to read many of your books and I have seperate columns in my study dedicated principally to your works. It occurred early on, when I read the 48 Laws for the first time, that I was thoroughly determined to read all the rest of your works. In précis, I believe it's an honour to live in the same time as yours. Like all great authors, I believe the true heights of your works and the depths of their philosophy are yet to be realized. I have taken particular interest in your style of analysis of myriad events and occurances throughout your books, I find it laudable. I wish for your to keep thriving and producing unassailable works as thee always have. I thank you for your wisdom and send my best regards.

However, do not read these books thinking that you will master psychology or anything. My suggestion to you is to read for knowledge and the love of reading.
