   As far as we can know, only minds can value; and if someone posits value   
   in something external, then that's merely a valuation from his/her mind.   
   That said, how do you look upon yourself? Beyond all restraints? Free as   
   a bird, and capable of revaluing all values? If you do so, please let us   
   know; I'd love to read your posts, better than Nietzsche's books.
