More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
God is dead, God remains dead, and we have killed him.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Posthumous men-myself, for example-are not as well understood as timely ones, but we are listened to better. More precisely: we are never understood-hence our authority.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The doer is merely a fiction added to the deed ? the deed is everything.
Friedrich Nietzsche
From which stars have we fallen to meet each other here?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Oh great star! What would your happiness be if you did not have us to shine for?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Convictions are more dangerous enemies of truth than lies.Courageous, untroubled, mocking and violent-that is what Wisdom wants us to be. Wisdom is a woman, and loves only a warrior.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Men use a new lesson or experience later on as a ploughshare or perhaps also as a weapon women at once make it into an ornament.
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
It is a distinction to have many virtues, but a hard lot.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One's own self is well hidden from one's own self of all mines of treasure, one's own is the last to be dug up.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Marriages that made out of love (so-called love-matches) have error as their father and misery (necessity) as their mother.
Friedrich Nietzsche
God remains dead. And we have killed him. Yet his shadow still looms. How shall we comfort ourselves, the murderers of all murderers?
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
The command 'become hard! ', the deep conviction that all creators are hard, is the really distinctive sign of a Dionysian nature.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Love is a state in which a man sees things most decidedly as they are not.
Friedrich Nietzsche
the voice of beauty speaks softly it creeps only into the most fully awakened souls
Friedrich Nietzsche
Each word of Heraclitus expresses the pride and the majesty of truth, but of truth grasped in intuitions rather than attained by the rope ladder of logic.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Too long, the earth has been a madhouse!
Friedrich Nietzsche
As far as Germany extends it ruins culture.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The English are the people of consummate cant.
Friedrich Nietzsche
