Key Notes
Nietzsche accepts desire's manifestation but rejects Schopenhauer's negation, asking why desire would embody itself unless embodiment should amplify desire.
For Nietzsche, the will is not merely will to life but will to power: the drive to expand, fulfill desire, and impose will on reality.
Germany is framed through will to power and living space: vulnerability inside Europe produces a drive to colonize surrounding territory and make it German.
