Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche
Although the most acute judges of the witches and even the witches themselves, were convinced of the guilt of witchery, the guilt nevertheless was non-existent. It is thus with all guilt.
Summary
This quote suggests that whether it is witches or any other form of guilt, the perception of guilt does not necessarily mean it truly exists. Even those who were considered experts on witches and the witches themselves, who believed in witchcraft, were convinced of guilt that was not actually present. The quote broadens this idea to argue that this applies to all guilt. It can be interpreted as a commentary on the subjectivity and fallibility of judgments, indicating that guilt is not always a reflection of actual wrongdoing.
