More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
The doer alone learneth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In a man devoted to knowledge, pity seems almost ridiculous, like delicate hands on a cyclops.
Friedrich Nietzsche
They're so cold, these scholars! May lightning strike their food so that their mouths learn how to eat fire!
Friedrich Nietzsche
History belongs above all to the man...who needs models, teachers, comforters and cannot find them among his contemporaries.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It takes physical courage to indulge in wickedness. The good are too cowardly to do it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The will to overcome an emotion, is ultimately only the will of another, or of several other, emotions.
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
If a man have a strong faith he can indulge in the luxury of skepticism.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever commits to paper what he suffers becomes a melancholy author: but he becomes a serious author when he tells us what he suffered and why he now reposes in joy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Madness is the exception in individuals but the rule in groups.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In art the end does not sanctify the means: but sacred means employed here can sanctify the end.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is my ambition to say in ten sentences what others say in a whole book.
Friedrich Nietzsche
With sturdy shoulders, space stands opposing all its weight to nothingness. Where space is, there is being.
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
To demand of strength that it should not express itself as strength, that it should not be a desire to overcome, a desire to throw down, a desire to become master, a thirst for enemies and resistances and triumphs, is just as absurd as to demand of weakness that it should express itself as strength.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Madness is not a consequence of uncertainty but of certainty.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When you stare into an abyss for a long time, the abyss also stares into you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The great epochs of our life come when we gain the courage to rechristen our evil as what is best in us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him who maketh his virtue his inclination and destiny: thus, for the sake of his virtue, he is willing to live on, or live no more.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The scaffolding must be removed once the house is built.
Friedrich Nietzsche
