nietzsche_caricature3As we are now the products of earlier generations, we are also the products of their aberrations, passions, mistakes, and even crimes.  It is impossible to loose oneself from this chain entirely.  When we condemn that confusion and consider ourselves released from it, then we have not overcome the fact that we are derived from it.

….But here and there victory is achieved.
