Pride is a recurring idea in the book. Nietzsche takes great pride in the fact that Germany is his fatherland. The author seems to have a great affinity for the works of Goethe and certainly feels a sort of kinship with the German writer. Nietzsche references other Germans, either by name or inference, giving them an equal share of reverence. Along with Nietzsche's obvious pride for Germany is an admiration for the French.
