More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Compulsion precedes morality, indeed morality itself is compulsion for a time, to which one submits for the avoidance of pain.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man is more sensitive to the contempt of others than to self-contempt.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever writes in blood and aphorisms wants not to be learned but to be learned by heart.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The grand style arises when beauty wins a victory over the monstrous.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I do not give alms I am not poor enough for that.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Master-morality and Slave-morality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What do you plan to do in the land of the sleepers? You have been floating in a sea of solitude, and the sea has borne you up. At long last, are you ready for dry land? Are you ready to drag yourself ashore?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Without the errors which lie in the assumption of morality, man would have remained an animal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In short, then, the religious cult is based upon the representations of sorcery between man and man, and the sorcerer is older than the priest.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To become the founder of a new religion one must be psychologically infallible in one's knowledge of a certain average type of souls who have not yet recognized that they belong together.
Friedrich Nietzsche
THE SLOW ARROW OF BEAUTY. The noblest kind of beauty is that which does not transport us suddenly, which does not make stormy and intoxicating impressions such a kind easily arouses disgust but that which slowly filters into our minds.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Not joy is the mother of dissipation, but joylessness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Character is determined more by the lack of certain experiences than by those one has had.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I welcome all the signs indicating that a more manly and warlike age is commencing, which will, above all, bring heroism again into honour!
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who is dissatisfied with himself is continually ready for revenge and we others will be his victims, if only in having always to endure his ugly sight. For the sight of the ugly makes one bad and gloomy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All parties attempt to represent important things that have developed outside themselves as unimportant, and where they fail in this they assail those things all the more bitterly the more admirable they are.
Friedrich Nietzsche
[Heraclitus had] the highest form of pride [stemming] from a certainty of belief in the truth as grasped by himself alone. He brings this form, by its excessive development, into a sublime pathos by involuntary identification of himself with his truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We come to recognize that playfulness, as a philosophical stance, can be very serious indeed and moreover, that it possesses an unfailing capacity to arouse ridicule and hostility in those among us who crave certainty, reverence, and restraint.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The gilded sheath of pity sometimes covers the dagger of envy.
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
