what book?

>>17126368
That's a lie. I'm attractive and women always get nervous when I talk to them so it's just awkward.

How disappointing

I wish I was 18, stupid, arrogant and naive again bros.

Let's call it his blind spot rather than his Achilles' Heel.

What are some more patrician /lit examples where the genuinely superior character loses because of his blind spot.

I occupy a place into space, therefore I exist

Everything is BASED

>So basically create a value system (bounded to provisional morality) and through action find the certain knowledge to ground it?
Yes. You will not be able to act toward attaining the truth without obliging yourself to act that way - otherwise arbitrary will, determining itself for this and that passion, will simply ride you in circles. But this determination cannot have absolute strength, because it lacks the grounding in clear cognition of human perfection. Therefore it still remains as a passion among passions, as uncertain judgements of the same quality as the judgements connected to passions, and in conflict with them. This is what makes provisional morality absolutely deficient in comparison to true morality, but true morality cannot be attained without cognition, which requires labour, which requires provisional morality.
>What I always wanted to do was will behaviours out of nothingness, just blind fanatic following of a certain value, but apparently that is impossible
I would not say so. Absolute morality promises, if knowledge of it can be attained, precisely that. If knowledge of it cannot be attained, then we are doomed to this unclear existence, which I would like to avoid by all means.

No problem, anon. I wish you good fortune. There is nothing more respectable than the path you wish to take.
