Friedrich Nietzsche
Those people have no real interest in a science who only begin to get excited about it when they themselves have made discoveries in it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Improvements are invented only by those who can feel that something is not good.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You say it is the good cause that hallows even war? I say unto you: it is the good war that hallows any cause.

Friedrich Nietzsche
I would only believe in a god who could dance. And when I saw my devil I found him serious, thorough, profound, and solemn: it was the spirit of gravity—through him all things fall. Not by wrath does one kill but by laughter. Come, let us kill the spirit of gravity!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Mastery has been achieved when one neither makes a mistake nor hesitates in the performance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every deep thinker is more afraid of being understood than of being misunderstood.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thoughts are the shadows of our feelings - always darker, emptier and simpler.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is happening to me happens to all fruits that grow ripe. It is the honey in my veins that makes my blood thicker, and my soul quieter.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is nobler to declare oneself wrong than to insist on being right --especially when one is right.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Life without music is only error, exhaustion, exile... Indeed, there is nothing that concerns me more than the fate of music.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What makes us heroic?--Confronting simultaneously our supreme suffering and our supreme hope.
Friedrich Nietzsche
