More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Character is determined more by the lack of certain experiences than by those one has had.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How much truth can a spirit bear, how much truth can a spirit dare? ... that became for me more and more the real measure of value.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What was a lie in the father becomes a conviction in the son.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No shepherd and one herd! Everybody wants the same, everybody is the same: whoever feels different goes voluntarily into a madhouse.
Friedrich Nietzsche
THE TEACHER AS A NECESSARY EVIL. Let us have as few people as possible between the productive minds and the hungry and recipient minds! The middlemen almost unconsciously adulterate the food which they supply. It is because of teachers that so little is learned, and that so badly.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If there is to be art, if there is to be any aesthetic doing and seeing, one physiological condition is indispensable: frenzy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Your god is dead and only the ignorant weep. And if you claim there is a hell, then we shall meet there!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Verily, I do not want to be like the ropemakers: They drag out their threads and always walk backwards.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Only ideas won by walking have any value.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One must repay good and ill but why just to the person who did us good or ill?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Be careful who you choose as your enemy because that's who you become most like.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A declaration of war on the masses by higher men is needed! ... Everything that makes soft and effeminate, that serves the end of the people or the feminine, works in favor of universal suffrage, i.e. the domination of the inferior men. But we should take reprisal and bring this whole affair to light and the bar of judgment.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We praise or blame as one or the other affords more opportunity for exhibiting our power of judgement.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Hold a true friend with both your hands.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Do you call yourself Free? It is your ruling thought that I would hear, and not that you have escaped from a yoke.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thoughts are the shadows of our feelings - always darker, emptier and simpler.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The end of a melody is not its goal but nonetheless, if the melody had not reached its end it would not have reached its goal either. A parable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I am afraid that old women are more skeptical in their most secret heart of hearts than any man: they believe in the superficiality of existence as in its essence, and all virtue and profundity is to them merely a veil over this truth, a most welcome veil over a pudendum--and so a matter of decency and modesty, and nothing else.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Real dancers are the ones who can hear the music in their soul.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Mastery has been achieved when one neither makes a mistake nor hesitates in the performance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
