More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
They muddy the water, to make it seem deep.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whatever the State saith is a lie whatever it hath is a theft: all is counterfeit in it, the gnawing, sanguinary, insatiate monster.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Like the creatures of the forest and the sea, I love To lose myself for a while.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Is man one of God's blunders? Or is God one of man's blunders?
Friedrich Nietzsche
The person lives most beautifully who does not reflect upon existence
Friedrich Nietzsche
Many a peacock hides his peacock tail from all eyes--and calls it his pride.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If a man have a strong faith he can indulge in the luxury of skepticism.
Friedrich Nietzsche
