Quote

Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators the creator seeks -- those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters for everything about him is ripe for the harvest.

Image
To predict the behavior of ordinary people in advance, you only have to assume that they will always try to escape a disagreeable situation with the smallest possible expenditure of intelligence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
It is only when we have ceased to be the followers of our followers that we comprehend how meaningless followers are.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Whereas the man of action binds his life to reason and its concepts so that he will not be swept away and lost, the scientific investigator builds his hut right next to the tower of science so that he will be able to work on it and to find shelter for himself beneath those bulwarks which presently exist.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Man is something that shall be overcome.... Man is a rope, tied between beast and overman -- a rope over an abyss... What is great in man is that he is a bridge and not an end.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
A sedentary life is the real sin against the Holy Spirit. Only those thoughts that come by walking have any value.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
However un-Christian this may sound, I am not even predisposed against myself.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Joy wants the eternity of all things, wants deep, wants deep eternity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
War has always been the grand sagacity of every spirit which has grown too inward and too profound its curative power lies even in the wounds one receives.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Higher than thou shalt stands I will (the heroes), and higher than I will stands I am (the Greek gods).
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Unpleasant, even dangerous, qualities can be found in every nation and every individual: it is cruel to demand that the Jew be an exception. In him, these qualities may even be dangerous and revolting to an unusual degree and perhaps the young stock-exchange Jew is altogether the most disgusting invention of mankind.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
As soon as we are shown the existence of something old in a new thing, we are pacified.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Man makes god in his own image.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
A few hours of mountain climbing make a blackguard and a saint two rather similar creatures.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
The creation of freedom for oneself and a sacred No even to duty -- for that, my brothers, the lion is needed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Every great love brings with it the cruel idea of killing the object of its love so that it may be removed once and for all from the wicked game of change: for love dreads change even more than annihilation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Compassion for the friend should conceal itself under a hard shell.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
In praise there is more obtrusiveness than in blame.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Bad cooks - and the utter lack of reason in the kitchen - have delayed human development longest and impaired it most.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
It is the most sensual men who need to flee women and torment their bodies.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Envy and jealousy are the private parts of the human soul. Perhaps the comparison can be extended.
Friedrich Nietzsche
