Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
When anyone apologizes to us he has to do it very expertly: otherwise we might easily come to see ourselves as the guilty party and experience unpleasant feelings.
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

Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
The familiarity of superiors embitters one, because it may not be returned.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Doing ill to those on whom we have to make our power felt for pain is a far more sensitive means for that purpose than pleasure: pain always asks concerning the cause, while pleasure is inclined to keep within itself and not look backward.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Liberalism is the transformation of mankind into cattle.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Though the favourites of the Gods die young, they also live eternally in the company of Gods
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Error has made man so deep, sensitive, and inventive that he has put forth such blossoms as religions and arts. Pure knowledge could not have been capable of it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Nothing is more pathological in our pathological modernity than this disease of Christian pity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Everywhere resoundeth the voices of those who preach death and the earth is full of those to whom death hath to be preached.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Immature is the love of the youth, and immature his hatred of man and earth. His mind and the wings of his spirit are still tied down and heavy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
There are slavish souls who carry their appreciation for favors done them so far that they strangle themselves with the rope of gratitude.
Friedrich Nietzsche
