Can anyone help me out here...

I'm looking to find Nietzsche's work in order to take a quote from it.

The work i'm looking for is his thoughts that all men are not equal as I am writing an essay regarding human rights.

Does anyone know in which of his works this line of thought appears? Is it something I could take a direct quote from?

Thank you for any help in advance.

Start with Thus Spake Zarathustra. Much talk there of the Übermensch. Does this support your thesis? I'm not sure.

In "Thus Spake Zarathustra", he discusses the "Ubermensch" or "Overman" and the idea that we are equal before god, but not among man.

Probably the only real philosophy I've read.

Ahhh! Took me too long to check the spelling of Zarathustra.
