Friedrich Nietzsche
One lives for the day, one lives very fast, one lives very irresponsibly: precisely this is called freedom.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What destroys a man more quickly than to work, think and feel without inner necessity, without any deep personal desire, without pleasure - as a mere automaton of duty?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Belief in the truth commences with the doubting of all those truths we once believed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You are rewarding a teacher poorly if you remain always a pupil.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Not doubt, certainty is what drives one insane.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Some men are born posthumously.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Such a man as instinctively feeds on pure ambrosia and leaves alone the indigestible in things.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Germans are incapable of any conception of greatness: proof Schumann.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To become wise you have to want to experience certain experiences, and so to run into their open jaws. This is very dangerous, tobe sure many a wise man has been eaten up in doing so.
Friedrich Nietzsche
