More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Man must become better and more evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Anyone who has declared someone else to be an idiot, a bad apple, is annoyed when it turns out in the end that he isn't.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When somebody dies we usually need reasons for consolation, not so much to alleviate our pain as to excuse ourselves for so readily feeling consoled.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Faith as an imperative is a veto against science-in praxi, it means lies at any price.
Friedrich Nietzsche
My formula for happiness: a Yes, a No, a straight line, a goal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Kindliness, friendliness, the courtesy of the heart, are ever-flowing streams of non egoistic impulses, and have given far more powerful assistance to culture than even those much more famous demonstrations which are called pity, mercy, and self-sacrifice.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Lying very still and thinking very little is the most inexpensive medicine for all the sicknesses of the soul, and when administered with good intentions it grows more and more pleasant with each passing hour.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We must take precautions against being prematurely honed sharp--since at the same time we are being prematurely honed thin.
Friedrich Nietzsche
God is dead, God remains dead, and we have killed him.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No victor believes in chance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is the difference between someone who is convinced and one who is deceived? None, if he is well deceived.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Our destiny rules over us, even when we are not yet aware of it it is the future that makes laws for our today.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Some are made modest by great praise, others insolent.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Men are even lazier than they are timorous, and what they fear most is the troubles with which any unconditional honesty and nudity would burden them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Men have hitherto treated women like birds which have strayed down to them from the heights as something more delicate, more fragile, more savage, stranger, sweeter, soulful--but as something which has to be caged up so that it shall not fly away.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Bad cooks - and the utter lack of reason in the kitchen - have delayed human development longest and impaired it most.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man and man's earth are unexhausted and undiscovered. Wake and listen! Verily, the earth shall yet be a source of recovery. Remain faithful to the earth, with the power of your virtue. Let your gift-giving love and your knowledge serve the meaning of the earth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Here the ways of men divide. If you wish to strive for peace of soul and happiness, then believe if you wish to be a disciple of truth, then inquire.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The truthful man ends up realizing that he always lies.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Belief in the truth commences with the doubting of all those truths we once believed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
