Notes

With this statement, Mella is explaining that he, like Nietzsche, who was well-known to be critical of a pedantically moralizing concept of God, has moments when he, too, criticizes people who pedantically moralize.

Mella is quoting French criminologist Gabriel Tarde’s La philosophie pénale (1890).
