Who this is

“The philosopher stolen by the Nazis wanted, in his own furious words, all anti-Semites shot — his real question was never about race or conquest but about health: are your values signs of a life ascending, or a life in decline?”
— The Great Philosophers, Ch. 182

The big idea, in the book's words:

“European civilization has quietly killed the God its values stood on; unless we learn where our morals actually came from and become strong enough to create values worth living by, nihilism — the sense that nothing matters — will swallow us.”
— The Great Philosophers, Ch. 182
