More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Belief in the truth commences with the doubting of all those truths we once believed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
History belongs above all to the man...who needs models, teachers, comforters and cannot find them among his contemporaries.
Friedrich Nietzsche
no one talks more passionately about his rights than he who in the depths of his soul doubts whether he has any
Friedrich Nietzsche
To be the equal of one's opponent-this is the first condition of an honourable duel.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Are you one who looks on? or lends a hand? - or who looks away, sidles off?...Third question for the conscience.
Friedrich Nietzsche
truths are illusions of which one has forgotten that they are illusions, metaphors that have become worn-out and deprived of their sensuous force, coins that have lost their imprint and are now no longer seen as coins but as metal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Mediocrity is the most effective mask a superior spirit can wear, because to the great majority, which is to say, to the mediocre,it will not suggest a disguise:--and yet it is precisely for their sake that he puts it on--so as not to arouse them, and, indeed, not infrequently to avoid this out of pity and benevolence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him who chasteneth his God, because he loveth his God: for he must succumb through the wrath of his God.
Friedrich Nietzsche
That which intoxicates, the sensually ecstatic, the sudden surprise, the urge to be profoundly stirred at any price -- dreadful tendencies!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Having a talent is not enough: one must also have your permission to have it--right, my friends?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Vanity is the fear of appearing original: it is thus a lack of pride, but not necessarily a lack of originality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sensuality often hastens the Growth of Love so much that the roots remain weak and are easily torn up.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him whose soul is lavish, who wanteth no thanks and doth not give back: for he always bestoweth, and desireth not to keep for himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Everything which distinguishes man from the animals depends upon this ability to volatilize perceptual metaphors in a schema, and thus to dissolve an image into a concept.
Friedrich Nietzsche
As soon as we are shown the existence of something old in a new thing, we are pacified.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Heavy, heavy-hearted people grow lighter and rise occasionally to their surface through precisely that which makes others heavier,through hatred and love.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are no limits to God's compassion with Paradises over their one universally felt want: he immediately created other animals besides. God's first blunder: Man didn't find the animals amusing, - he dominated them and didn't even want to be an 'animal.'
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where there is the tree of knowledge, there is always Paradise: so say the most ancient and most modern serpents.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One should not be deceived: great spirits are skeptics ... Strength, FREEDOM which is born of the strength and overstrength of the spirit, proves itself by skepticism. Men of conviction are not worthy of the least consideration in fundamental questions of value and disvalue. Convictions are prisons.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When you look into an abyss, the abyss also looks into you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
