Quote by Friedrich Nietzsche
We set no special value on the possession of a virtue until we percieve that it is entirely lacking in our adversary.
Summary
This quote suggests that we often fail to appreciate or recognize the value of a virtue until we realize that our adversary completely lacks it. In other words, it is only when we witness the absence of a trait or quality in someone we oppose or compete against that we begin to truly understand and appreciate the importance of possessing that particular virtue ourselves. This quote encourages us to reflect on the significance of virtues and how they influence our perceptions of others and ourselves.
