More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
The hour when you say, What does my happiness matter? It is poverty and filth, and a wretched complacency. Yet my happiness should justify existence itself!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The will to power can express itself only against resistances it seeks that which resists it--this is the native tendency of theamoeba when it extends its pseudopodia and gropes around.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The charm of knowledge would be small indeed, were it not that there is so much shame to be overcome on the way to it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The desire for a strong faith is not the proof of a strong faith, rather the opposite. If one has it one may permit oneself the beautiful luxury of skepticism: one is secure enough, fixed enough for it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In large states public education will always be mediocre, for the same reason that in large kitchens the cooking is usually bad.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A matter that becomes clear ceases to concern us.--What was that god thinking who counseled, Know thyself! Did he perhaps mean,Cease to concern yourself! Become objective!--And Socrates?--And scientific men?
Friedrich Nietzsche
We must take precautions against being prematurely honed sharp--since at the same time we are being prematurely honed thin.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Our destiny exercises its influence over us even when, as yet, we have not learned its nature: it is our future that lays down the law of our today
Friedrich Nietzsche
For art to exist, for any sort of aesthetic activity to exist, a certain physiological precondition is indispensable: intoxication.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One had better put on gloves before handling the New Testament. The presence of so much filth makes it highly advisable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You must climb above yourself-up and beyond, until you have even your stars under you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A high civilization is a pyramid: it can stand only on a broad base its primary prerequisite is a strong and soundly consolidated mediocrity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The melancholia of everything completed!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Physician, help yourself: thus help your patient too. Let this be his best help: that he may behold with his eyes the man who heals himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The good four. Honest with ourselves and with whatever is friend to us courageous toward the enemy generous toward the vanquished polite-always that is how the four cardinal virtues want us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Courage is the best slayer - courage which attacketh, for in every attack there is the sound of triumph.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Life, and you, and I, and all of us together became for a while interesing to ourselves once more.
Friedrich Nietzsche
That which does not kill us makes us stronger.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One often contradicts an opinion when what is uncongenial is really the tone in which it was conveyed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I want to learn more and more to see as beautiful what is necessary in things:—then I shall be one of those who make things beautiful. Amor fati: let that be my love from henceforth!
Friedrich Nietzsche
