More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
But let me open up my heart to you completely, my friends: if there were gods, how could I bear not being a god! Hence, there areno gods. I drew this conclusion, to be sure--but now it draws me.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We belong to an age whose culture is in danger of perishing through the means to culture.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Seducing one's neighbor to a good opinion and then afterwards believing devoutly in this neighbor's opinion--who can match women in this clever ploy?
Friedrich Nietzsche
When man does not have firm, calm lines on the horizon of his life- mountain and forest lines, as it were- then a man's innermost will becomes agitated, preoccupied, and wistful.
Friedrich Nietzsche
At heart I am a warrior.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The danger in happiness - Now everything is turning out right for me from now on i'll love every turn of fate - Who wants to be my fate?
Friedrich Nietzsche
The disgust with dirt can be so great that it keeps us from cleaning ourselves--from justifying ourselves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
With the strength of his spiritual sight and insight the distance, and as it were the space, around man continually expands: his world grows deeper, ever new stars, ever new images and enigmas come into view.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Socrates and Plato are right: whatever man does he always does well, that is, he does that which seems to him good (useful) according to the degree of his intellect, the particular standard of his reasonableness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
With one more talent one frequently stands with greater instability than with one less, as a table stands better on three legs than on four.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you are too weak to give yourselves your own law, then a tyrant shall lay his yoke upon you and say: Obey! Clench your teeth and obey! And all good and evil shall be drowned in obedience to him.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One can promise actions, but not feelings, for the latter are involuntary. He who promises to love forever or hate forever or be forever faithful to someone is promising something that is not in his power.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Amor Fati – “Love Your Fate”, which is in fact your life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Men after death ... are understood worse than men of the moment, but heard better.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever has overthrown an existing law of custom has always first been accounted a bad man: but when, as did happen, the law could not afterwards be reinstated and this fact was accepted, the predicate gradually changed - history treats almost exclusively of these bad men who subsequently became good men!
Friedrich Nietzsche
To produce music is also in a sense to produce children.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We must remain as close to the flowers, the grass, and the butterflies as the child is who is not yet so much taller than they are.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Hold a true friend with both your hands.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who has attained intellectual emancipation to any extent cannot, for a long time, regard himself otherwise than as a wanderer on the face of the earth and not even as a traveller towards a final goal, for there is no such thing.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Along the journey we commonly forget its goal. Almost every vocation is chosen and entered upon as a means to a purpose but is ultimately continued as a final purpose in itself. Forgetting our objectives is the most frequent stupidity in which we indulge ourselves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
