2Hello,
Could anyone tell me from which book of the German philosopher Nietzsche the sentence "the devil is in the details" come from? (ideally title and page, but just title would already be fantastic).
I need to know which book in order to cite properly (for a master's thesis). Strangely, it is extremely hard to find from which book it comes from. I have been searching on Google for > 1 hour.
Best regards,

9.2kA devilish detail indeed! My bet is that he never said it, it just sounds like something he might have said.
