The snake which cannot cast its skin has to die. As well the minds which are prevented from changing their opinions they cease to be mind.

More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Most people are far too much occupied with themselves to be malicious.
Friedrich Nietzsche
truths are illusions of which one has forgotten that they are illusions, metaphors that have become worn-out and deprived of their sensuous force, coins that have lost their imprint and are now no longer seen as coins but as metal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The State is the coldest of all cold monsters.
Friedrich Nietzsche
They're so cold, these scholars! May lightning strike their food so that their mouths learn how to eat fire!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Away from God and gods did this will lure me: what would there be to create if gods existed?
Friedrich Nietzsche
The danger in happiness - Now everything is turning out right for me from now on i'll love every turn of fate - Who wants to be my fate?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Nothing in life possesses value except the degree of power--assuming that life itself is the will to power.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is a distinction to have many virtues, but a hard lot.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We set no special value on the possession of a virtue until we percieve that it is entirely lacking in our adversary.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Seducing one's neighbor to a good opinion and then afterwards believing devoutly in this neighbor's opinion--who can match women in this clever ploy?
Friedrich Nietzsche
One should part from life as Odysseus parted from Nausicaa-blessing it rather than in love with it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man is no longer an artist, he has become a work of art.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The great works are produced in such an ecstasy of love that they must always be unworthy of it, however great their worth otherwise.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The more you let yourself go, the less others let you go.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I speak and the child plays: who can be more serious than we are?
Friedrich Nietzsche
About sacrifice and the offering of sacrifices, sacrificial animals think quite differently from those who look on: but they have never been allowed to have their say.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The destiny of the human race is to widen the gap separating it from the lower races of animals. Any code of morality which retains its permanence and authority after the conditions of existence which gave rise to it have changed, works against this upward progress of man.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Exhaustion is the shortest way to equality and fraternity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thinking about suicide is a potent consolation: it helps us to get through many a bad night.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who knows himself to be profound endeavors to be clear he who would like to appear profound to the crowd endeavors to be obscure.
Friedrich Nietzsche
