ewige   Wiederkehr des Gleichen, eterno retorno do mesmo

Such indifference (Gleichgültigkeit  ), in which everything is experienced as being ultimately of equal (gleich  ) worth (Gültigkeit  ), in which “everything is the same [gleich],” in which “nothing is worthwhile,” is also the essential trait of what Nietzsche   diagnoses as nihilism: with the (apparent) abolition of the suprasensuous world, the world of the sensuous appears without intrinsic value or worth. Thought in this way, the eternal recurrence of the same (die ewige Wiederkunft des Gleichen) appears as a formulation of the most extreme nihilism [Der Wille   zur Macht  , §55]. [MCNEILL  , William. The Glance of the Eye. Heidegger, Aristotle  , and the Ends of Theory. New York: SUNY, 1999, p. 225]
