One must shed the bad taste of wanting to agree with many. Good is no longer good when one’s neighbor mouths it. And how should there be a common good? The term contradicts itself: whatever can be common always has little value. In the end it must be as it is and always has been: great things remain for the great, abysses for the profound, nuances and shudders for the refined, and, in brief, all that is rare for the rare.
