More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
The saying, The Magyar is much too lazy to be bored, is worth thinking about. Only the most subtle and active animals are capable of boredom.--A theme for a great poet would be God's boredom on the seventh day of creation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Linguistic danger to spiritual freedom.- Every word is a prejudice.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is certainly not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable it is precisely thereby that it attracts the more subtle minds. It seems that the hundred-times-refuted theory of the free will owes its persistence to this charm alone some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Ye are ugly? Well then, my brethren, take the sublime about you, the mantle of the ugly!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Genuine historical knowledge requires nobility of character, a profound understanding of human existence - not detachment and objectivity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The philosopher caught in the nets of language.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No artist will tolerate the world for one second as it is.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Germans are like women, you can scarcely ever fathom their depths - they haven't any.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The charm of the Platonic mode of thought ... consisted precisely in the resistance to the obvious evidence of the senses.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Once blasphemy again God was the greatest blasphemy but God died, and thereupon those blasphemers died too.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Such a man as instinctively feeds on pure ambrosia and leaves alone the indigestible in things.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Words are but symbols for the relations of things to one another and to us nowhere do they touch upon absolute truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He has drawn back, only in order to have enough room for his leap
Friedrich Nietzsche
Christians call it faith ... I call it the herd.
Friedrich Nietzsche
whatever is profound loves masks what is most profound even hates image and parable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Perhaps no philosopher is more correct than the cynic. The happiness of the animal, that thorough cynic, is the living proof of cynicism.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I have forgotten my umbrella.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Those who are bent on revolutionizing society may be divided into those who seek something for themselves thereby and those who seek something for their children and grandchildren.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Words are but symbols for the relations of things to one another and to us nowhere do they touch upon absolute truth... Through words and concepts we shall never reach beyond the wall off relations, to some sort of fabulous primal ground of things.
Friedrich Nietzsche
At the very moment when someone is beginning to take philosophy seriously, the whole world believes the opposite.
Friedrich Nietzsche
