Egoism? But What Ego!

Friedrich Nietzsche, Unpublished Fragments From the Period of Thus Spoke Zarathustra, tr. Paul S. Loeb and David F. Tinsley, Spring 1884, §25 [287], p. 74:

Egoism! But no-one has ever asked: what kind of ego! Instead, every person automatically assumes that the ego of every ego is equal. These are the consequences of the slave-theory of suffrage universel and of «equality.»
