More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
When we have a great goal we are superior even to justice, not merely to our deeds and our judges.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thinking about suicide is a potent consolation: it helps us to get through many a bad night.
Friedrich Nietzsche
But it is the same with man as with the tree. The more he seeketh to rise into the height and light, the more vigorously do his roots struggle earthward, downward, into the dark and deep — into the evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Moral sensibilities are nowadays at such cross-purposes that to one man a morality is proved by its utility, while to another its utility refutes it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The value of life itself cannot be estimated.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Men should learn to live with the same seriousness with which children play.
Friedrich Nietzsche
After coming into contact with a religious man I always feel I must wash my hands.
Friedrich Nietzsche
God is dead, God remains dead, and we have killed him.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What saved me then? Nothing but pregnancy. And each time after I had given birth to my work my life hung suspended by a thin thread.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Madness is the result not of uncertainty but certainty.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The enormous expectation having to do with sexual love and the shame involved in this expectation degrades all a woman's perspectives from the start.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For the woman, the man is a means: the end is always the child.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A married philosopher is a comic character.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every day I count wasted in which there has been no dancing.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All idealism is falsehood in the face of necessity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Against boredom even gods struggle in vain.
Friedrich Nietzsche
As an artist one has no home in Europe except in Paris.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Those you cannot teach to fly, teach to fall faster.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There will be but few people who, when at a loss for topics of conversation, will not reveal the more secret affairs of their friends.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Zarathustra was the first to consider the fight of good and evil the very wheel in the machinery of things: the transposition of morality into the metaphysical realm, as a force, cause, and end in itself, is his work. [...] Zarathustra created this most calamitous error, morality consequently, he must also be the first to recognize it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
