Full Idea
Must not all philosophy finally bring to light the presuppositions on which the movement of reason rests?
Gist of Idea
Won't philosophy eventually reveal the presuppositions of reason?
Source
Friedrich Nietzsche (Fragments from 1886-87 (v 17) [1887], 7[63])
A Reaction
Probably not, I would say! If reason itself becomes unavailable as a tool of research (because it is now the object of that research), I don't see any alternative tools for the job. Nietzsche (I think) only only offers 'instinct' to oppose reason.
