Nietzsche's Wisdom Book & Card Deck


"Freedom is the will to be responsible for ourselves" - Nietzsche, The Twilight of the Idols This handy book and card kit distills the lessons from master philosopher, Friedrich Nietzsche, highlighting his words of wisdom to enable the reader to digest his ideas in an accessible way. Philosopher and scholar, Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) had his legacy wilfully abused by his ultranationalist sister, Elisabeth. Thankfully his writings have been restored to their original intent and show a level of perceptivity that places him in the ranks of world class thinkers. Informed by his work as a classical scholar, the writings presented here show Nietzschean thought on morality and ways of being in the world. This beautifully presented card and book set will make for an excellent introduction to Nietzsche and his philosophical thoughts. ABOUT THE SERIES: Arcturus Inspiration Kits contain full-colour guides to a mode of wisdom, accompanied by beautiful quote cards and a display stand to rest them upon, all enclosed in a giftable lidded box.

What Would Jane Do?


Ponder the wisdom and witticisms of Jane Austen in this delightful box kit, complete with a full-colour guide to her life and times, 52 inimitable quotes and a handy display stand. Jane Austen is perhaps the Regency era's most beloved writer, and a whole industry has grown up around her witty novels, her life, and her unforgettable characters. Here historian and author Suzie Grogan takes some of the most memorable quotations from her novels and explains them for an inspiring look at What Would Jane Do? Her humorous take on universal themes of love, loss, betrayal, scandal and society make her the ideal guide for discovering wisdom in unusual places. What can we learn from Marianne's sensibilities? Or Elizabeth's prejudice? Here Darcy becomes more than a handsome, proud man and instead shows this level of profound self-knowledge: 'As a child I was taught what was right, but I was not taught to correct my temper. I was given good principles, but left to follow them in pride and conceit.' Quiet little Fanny Price is the wise utterer of the words: 'We have all a better guide in ourselves, if we would attend to it, than any other person can be.' This book and card deck will permit you to find deeper meaning in the quotes of Jane Austen's characters as well as understanding more about the Georgian society in which she lived.
