The Difference Between Qualitative and Quantitative Will to Power

In this chapter, they discuss the difference between the qualitative and quantitative will to power. They use the example of a kid in high school who falls in love with tennis and plays it all the time, even though they often lose. This person is driven by the love of playing rather than the love of winning. They also explain how the will to power qualitatively is analogous to play, while the quantitative will to power is analogous to a game. They argue that Nietzsche's theory preserves parsimony by explaining seemingly opposite phenomena with a single concept.
