More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
No price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The earth has become small, and on it hops the last man, who makes everything small. His race can no more be exterminated than the flea can be. The last man lives the longest.
Friedrich Nietzsche
My abyss speaks, I have turned my ultimate depth inside out into the light.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Impoliteness is frequently the sign of an awkward modesty that loses its head when surprised and hopes to conceal this with rudeness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every profound spirit needs a mask.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is a stupid humility that is quite common and when a person is afflicted with it, he is once and for all disqualified for being a disciple of knowledge.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The definition of morality: Morality is the idiosyncrasy of decadents having the hidden desire to revenge themselves upon life - and being successful.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The so called unconscious inferences can be traced back to the all-preserving memory, which presents us with parallel experiences and hence already knows the consequences of an action. It is not anticipation of the effects rather, it is the feeling: identical causes, identical effects . . .
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is done out of love always occurs beyond good and evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The anarchist and the Christian have a common origin.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All truth is simple... is that not doubly a lie?
Friedrich Nietzsche
The existence of forgetting has never been proved: We only know that some things don't come to mind when we want them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No journey is too great, when one finds what one seeks.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Against war it may be said that it makes the victor stupid and the vanquished revengeful.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In the stream.- Mighty waters draw much stone and rubble along with them mighty spirits many stupid and bewildered heads.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him whose soul is deep even in the wounding, and may succumb through a small matter: thus goeth he willingly over the bridge.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The best author will be the one who is ashamed to become a writer.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Life is fountain of joy but where the rabble also gather to drink, all wells are poisoned.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Improvements are invented only by those who can feel that something is not good.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thoughts are the shadows of our feelings - always darker, emptier and simpler.
Friedrich Nietzsche
