Pulchrum est paucorum hominum in Neitzsche's anti-christ means Few Men are Noble..
?
That is probably a free translation. Neitzsche quotes Horace and the meaning of the phrase is "Beauty is for the few". Search an online version in Amazon.
what does this part of the phrase translate as? "paucorum hominum"
paucorum = few
hominum = men
