More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
It is impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it every complaint already contains revenge.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Those who create are hard of heart.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The gilded sheath of pity sometimes covers the dagger of envy.
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
We are unknown to ourselves, we men of knowledge - and with good reason. We have never sought ourselves - how could it happen that we should ever find ourselves? It has rightly been said: Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also our treasure is where the beehives of our knowledge are.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Love brings to light the lofty and hidden characteristics of the lover--what is rare and exceptional in him: to that extent it caneasily be deceptive with respect to what is normal in him.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One cannot read the New Testament without acquired admiration for whatever it abuses not to speak of the wisdom of this world, which an impudent wind bag tries to dispose of by the foolishness of preaching.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One should part from life as Odysseus parted from Nausicaa-blessing it rather than in love with it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The parasites live where the great have little secret sores.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are slavish souls who carry their appreciation for favors done them so far that they strangle themselves with the rope of gratitude.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Ultimately, no one can extract from things, books included, more than he already knows.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We take a fancy to something: and scarcely have we thoroughly taken a fancy to it when that tyrant in us calls out: Give me thatin sacrifice--and we give it.
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
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
We should turn our death into a celebration, even if only out of a malice towards life: towards the woman who wants to leave--us!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The great poet draws his creations only from out of his own reality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is good to express a thing twice right at the outset and so to give it a right foot and also a left one. Truth can surely stand on one leg, but with two it will be able to walk and get around.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How poisonous, how crafty, how bad, does every long war make one, which cannot be waged openly by means of force!
Friedrich Nietzsche
You look up when you wish to be exalted. And I look down because I am exalted.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is good? ye ask. To be brave is good. Let the little girls say: To be good is what is pretty, and at the same time touching.
Friedrich Nietzsche
