More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Where I found the living, there I found the will to power even in the will of servants I found the will to be master.
Friedrich Nietzsche
History teaches that a race of people is best preserved where the greater number hold one common spirit in consequence of the similarity of their accustomed and indisputable principles.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Woman was God's second mistake.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thus the man who is responsive to artistic stimuli reacts to the reality of dreams as does the philosopher to the reality of existence he observes closely, and he enjoys his observation: for it is out of these images that he interprets life, out of these processes that he trains himself for life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Triumph depends on a roll of Fate's dice the ultimate prize is a place in Heaven.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Fanatics are picturesque, mankind would rather see gestures than listen to reasons.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Almost two thousand years, and no new god!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Those are my enemies: they want to overthrow and to construct nothing themselves. They say: All that is worthless--and want to create no value themselves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The most dangerous physicians are those born actors who imitate born physicians with a perfectly deceptive guile.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man is the only animal that must be encouraged to live.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Both classically- and romantically-minded spirits-inasmuch as these two species always exist-occupy themselves with a vision of the future: but the former do so out of a strength of their age, the latter out of its weakness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
So far there has been no philosopher in whose hands philosophy has not grown into an apology for knowledge on this point, at least, every one is an optimist, that the greatest usefulness must be ascribed to knowledge. They are all tyrannized over by logic, and this is optimism in its essence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every tradition grows continually more venerable, and the more remote its origins, the more this is lost sight of. The veneration paid the tradition accumulates from generation to generation, until it at last becomes holy and excites awe.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whatever harm the evil may do, the harm done by the good is the most harmful harm.
Friedrich Nietzsche
About sacrifice and the offering of sacrifices, sacrificial animals think quite differently from those who look on: but they have never been allowed to have their say.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you want me to believe in your redeemer, you are going to have to look a lot more redeemed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People to whom their daily life appears too empty and monotonous easily grow religious this is comprehensible and excusable, only they have no right to demand religious sentiments from those whose daily life is not empty and monotonous.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whether in conversation we generally agree or disagree with others is largely a matter of habit: the one tendency makes as much sense as the other.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The ascetic makes a necessity of virtue.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are no moral phenomena at all, but only a moral interpretation of phenomena.
Friedrich Nietzsche
