"To speak of just or unjust in itself is quite
senseless; in itself, of course, no injury, assault, exploitation,
destruction can be 'unjust,' since life operates essentially, that is in
its basic functions, through injury, assault, exploitation, destruction
and simply cannot be thought of at all without this character. One must
indeed grant something even more unpalatable: that, from the highest
biological standpoint, legal conditions can never be other than
exceptional conditions, since they constitute a partial restriction of
the will of life, which is bent upon power, and are subordinate to its
total goal as a single means: namely, as a means of creating greater
units of power. A legal order thought of as sovereign and universal, not
as a means in the struggle between power complexes but as a means of
preventing all struggle in general perhaps after the communistic cliché of Dühring, that every will must consider every other will its
equal—would be a principle hostile to life, an agent of the dissolution
and destruction of man, an attempt to assassinate the future of man, a
sign of weariness, a secret path to nothingness." (NIETZSCHE - THE WILL TO POWER)
