"My dear Matzneff, thank you for your lively comments. I am very pleased that you have included me in the crusade against procreation. Sometimes I regret not being a fanatic: with what fury I would fight for the depopulation of the globe! You were right to highlight the passages on suicide, without ever trying to downplay them. Quite the contrary."
As for Nietzsche, I am exasperated and saddened to see that he is, like Christ, accepted by everyone . It only takes someone in our era to be condemned. But we could talk about all these things another time. Call me as soon as you can. Yours sincerely, Cioran.
