"Nietzsche is worse than shocking; he is simply awful: his epigrams are written with phosphorus or brimstone. The only excuse for reading him is that before long you must be prepared either to talk about Nietzsche, or else retire from society, especially from aristocratically minded society.... His sallies, petulant and impossible as some of them are, are the work of a rare spirit, and pregnant with its vitality."—Mr George Bernard Shaw in the Saturday Review.
"Lurking behind the intellectual movements of Europe in philosophy as in everything else, England is just now beginning to hear of the existence of Friedrich Nietzsche."—Mr Ernest Newman in the Free Review.
"Nietzsche is, without doubt, an extraordinarily interesting figure ... the greatest spiritual force which has appeared since Goethe."—Mr Havelock Ellis in the Savoy.
