More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Every philosophy is the philosophy of some stage of life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All religions bear traces of the fact that they arose during the intellectual immaturity of the human race - before it had learned the obligations to speak the truth. Not one of them makes it the duty of its god to be truthful and understandable in his communications.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The author must keep his mouth shut when his work starts to speak.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Among the wealthy, generosity is often merely a kind of shyness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To discover he is loved in return ought really to disenchant the lover with the beloved.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The most spiritual human beings, assuming they are the most courageous, also experience by far the most painful tragedies: but it is precisely for this reason that they honor life, because it brings against them its most formidable weapons.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The idealist is incorrigible: if he is thrown out of his heaven he makes an ideal of his hell.
Friedrich Nietzsche
And so do you suppose it must be a piece-work because it has been given to you (and could only be given to you) in pieces?
Friedrich Nietzsche
From whatever you wish to know and measure you must take your leave, at least for a time. Only when you have left the town can yousee how high its towers rise above the houses.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We forget our guilt when we have confessed it to another, but the other does not usually forget it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For let us not underestimate the Christian: the Christian, false to the point of innocence, is far above the ape-regarding Christians, a well known theory of descent becomes a mere compliment.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The body is a big sagacity, a plurality with one sense, a war and a peace, a flock and a shepherd.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where do your greatest dangers lie?--In pity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When we have a great goal we are superior even to justice, not merely to our deeds and our judges.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Those who cannot understand how to put their thoughts on ice should not enter into the heat of debate.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is our needs that interpret the world our drives and their For and Against. Every drive is a kind of lust to rule each one has its perspective that it would like to compel all other drives to accept as a norm.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One has renounced the great life when one renounces war.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Men are cowards when it comes to the eternally feminine: and the little women know it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man must become better and more evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Physician, help yourself: thus help your patient too. Let this be his best help: that he may behold with his eyes the man who heals himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
