Friedrich Nietzsche
One hears - one does not seek one takes - one does not ask who gives.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
In the true man there is a child concealed who wants to play.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who despises himself esteems himself as a self-despiser.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who humbles himself wants to be exalted.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who thinks a great deal is not suited to be a party man: he thinks his way through the party and out the other side too soon.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every deep thinker is more afraid of being understood than of being misunderstood.
Friedrich Nietzsche
