More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
We have no organ at all for knowledge, for truth: we know (or believe or imagine) precisely as much as may be useful in the interest of the human herd, the species: and even what is here called usefulness is in the end only a belief, something imagined and perhaps precisely that most fatal piece of stupidity by which we shall one day perish.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If Islam despises Christianity, it has a thousandfold right to do so: Islam at least assumes that it is dealing with men.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In the knowledge of truth, what really matters is the possession of it, not the impulse under which it was sought.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Women want to serve, and this is where their happiness lies: but the free spirit does not want to be served, and this is where hishappiness lies.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Christianity in particular should be dubbed a great treasure-chamber of ingenious consolations, such a store of refreshing, soothing, deadening drugs has it accumulated within itself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We must repay goodness and wickedness: but why exactly to the person who has done us a good or a wicked turn?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Compassion for the friend should conceal itself under a hard shell.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Nothing is more pathological in our pathological modernity than this disease of Christian pity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
However closely people are attached to one another, their mutual horizon nonetheless includes all four compass directions, and nowand again they notice it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Moderation sees itself as beautiful it is unaware that in the eye of the immoderate it appears black and sober and consequently ugly-looking.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All good things were formerly bad things every original sin has turned into an original virtue.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Hope, in its stronger forms, is a great deal more powerful stimulans to life than any sort of realized joy can ever be. Man must be sustained in suffering by a hope so high that no conflict with actuality can dash it - so high, indeed, that no fulfilment can satisfy it: a hope reaching out beyond this world.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Let woman be a plaything, pure and fine, like a precious stone, illumined with the virtues of a world not yet come.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To get into just those situations where sham virtues will not suffice, but rather where, as with the ropedancer on his rope, one either falls or stands--or gets down.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Good deeds shun the light as anxiously as evil deeds: the latter fear that disclosure will bring on pain (as punishment), while the former fear that disclosure will take away pleasure (that pure pleasure, that pleasure per se, which immediately ceases once the vanity's satisfaction is added).
Friedrich Nietzsche
In the end we are always rewarded for our good will, our patience, fair-mindedness, and gentleness with what is strange.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The scaffolding must be removed once the house is built.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are two things a real man likes - danger and play and he likes woman because she is the most dangerous of play things.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Art is the proper task of life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
THE SLOW ARROW OF BEAUTY. The noblest kind of beauty is that which does not transport us suddenly, which does not make stormy and intoxicating impressions such a kind easily arouses disgust but that which slowly filters into our minds.
Friedrich Nietzsche
