Today as always, men fall into two groups: slaves and free men. Whoever does not have two-thirds of his day for himself, is a slave, whatever he may be: a statesman, a businessman, an official, or a scholar.

More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
A good seat on a horse steals away your opponent's courage and your onlooker's heart-what reason is there to attack? Sit like one who has conquered?
Friedrich Nietzsche
I speak and the child plays: who can be more serious than we are?
Friedrich Nietzsche
What someone is, begins to be revealed when his talent abates, when he stops showing us what he can do.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The secret of reaping the greatest fruitfulness and the greatest enjoyment from life is to live dangerously.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I do not know what the spirit of a philosopher could more wish to be than a good dancer. For the dance is his ideal, also his fine art, finally also the only kind of piety he knows, his 'divine service.'
Friedrich Nietzsche
A little poison now and then: that makes for pleasant dreams. And a lot of poison at the end, for a pleasant death.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For it is only as an aesthetic phenomenon that existence and the world are eternally justified.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One who has given up any hope of winning a fight or has clearly lost it wants his style in fighting to be admired all the more.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When one is young, one venerates and despises without that art of nuances which constitutes the best gain of life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One sticks to an opinion because he prides himself on having come to it on his own, and another because he has taken great pains to learn it and is proud to have grasped it: and so both do so out of vanity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What saved me then? Nothing but pregnancy. And each time after I had given birth to my work my life hung suspended by a thin thread.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The essence of all beautiful art, all great art, is gratitude.
Friedrich Nietzsche
[Heraclitus had] pride not in logical knowledge but rather in intuitive grasping of the truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who climbeth on the highest mountains, laugheth at all tragic plays and tragic realities.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whether we immoralists do any harm to virtue?-Just as little as anarchists do to princes. It is only because they have been shot at that they once again sit securely on their thrones. Moral: we must shoot at morals.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A little health now and again is the ailing person's best remedy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The stronger becomes master of the weaker, in so far as the latter cannot assert its degree of independence here there is no mercy, no forbearance, even less a respect for laws.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Yes, life is a woman!
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are no beautiful surfaces without a terrible depth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I no longer want to walk on worn soles.
Friedrich Nietzsche
