I don't know much German but I do know French. Your post reminds me of a 1980s article I once read in French. It was essentially a conversation between Fischer and the French writer-philosopher Andre Glucksmann. In it Fischer regretted his lack of higher education and told Glucksmann that he was going to read the works of the great philosophers in alphabetical order. At the time of the interview he said he was reading Aristotle. Glucksmann laughed and moved on to another subject.
BuHuHaHa! He is such a moron.
