Friedrich Nietzsche
Men submit from habit to everything that seeks power.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One can also be undignified and flattering toward a virtue.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The apprentice and the master love the master in different ways.
Friedrich Nietzsche

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
