More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
To find everything profound - that is an inconvenient trait. It makes one strain one's eyes all the time, and in the end one finds more than one might have wished.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Immortal is the moment when I engendered the recurrence. For the sake of this moment I bear the recurrence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
the voice of beauty speaks softly it creeps only into the most fully awakened souls
Friedrich Nietzsche
Was aus Liebe getan wird, geschieht immer jenseits von Gut und Böse. (What is done out of love always takes place beyond good and evil.)
Friedrich Nietzsche
God is a gross answer, an indelicacy against us thinkers- at bottom merely a gross prohibition for us: you shall not think!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The empty, the one, the unmoved, the full, satiation, wanting nothing--that would be my evil: in short, dreamless sleep.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The rising and falling of the scales of pride and humility sustain the brooding mind as well as the alternations of desire and peace of the soul.
Friedrich Nietzsche
[Heraclitus had] pride not in logical knowledge but rather in intuitive grasping of the truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Good deeds shun the light as anxiously as evil deeds: the latter fear that disclosure will bring on pain (as punishment), while the former fear that disclosure will take away pleasure (that pure pleasure, that pleasure per se, which immediately ceases once the vanity's satisfaction is added).
Friedrich Nietzsche
The most general deficiency in our sort of culture and education is gradually dawning on me: no one learns, no one strives towards, no one teaches--enduring loneliness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Weariness that wants to reach the ultimate with one leap, with one fatal leap, a poor ignorant weariness that does not want to want any more: this created all gods and afterworlds.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The person lives most beautifully who does not reflect upon existence
Friedrich Nietzsche
Envy and jealousy are the private parts of the human soul. Perhaps the comparison can be extended.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The visionary lies to himself, the liar only to others.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I teach you beyond Man (superman). Man is something that shall be surpassed. What have you done to surpass him?
Friedrich Nietzsche
On every parable you ride to every truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For the purpose of knowledge we must know how to make use of the inward current which draws us towards a thing, and also of the current which after a time draws us away from it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where do your greatest dangers lie?--In pity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A strong and well-constituted man digests his experiences (deeds and misdeeds all included) just as he digests his meats, even when he has some tough morsels to swallow.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every profound spirit needs a mask.
Friedrich Nietzsche
