Metaphysical world.- It is true, there could be a metaphysical world the absolute possibility of it is hardly to be disputed. We behold all things through the human head and cannot cut off this head while the question nonetheless remains what of the world would still be there if one had cut it off.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Alas! There cometh the time when man will no longer give birth to any star. Alas! There cometh the time of the most despicable man, who can no longer despise himself.

Friedrich Nietzsche
What is not intelligible to me is not necessarily unintelligent
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every philosophy is the philosophy of some stage of life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Few are made for independence, it is the privilege of the strong.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You say a good cause justifies any war but I say a good war justifies any cause.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I devote myself to what I love the most, and for this very reason I hesitate to designate it with lofty words: I do not want to risk believing that it is a sublime compulsion, a law, which I obey: I love what I love the most too much to wish to appear to it as one compelled.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Disobedience- that is the nobility of slaves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What doesn't kill you make you stronger.
Friedrich Nietzsche
