More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him who liveth in order to know, and seeketh to know in order that the Superman may hereafter live. Thus seeketh he his own down-going.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Woman was God's second mistake.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Some die too young, some die too old the precept sounds strange, but die at the right age.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We pay dearly for immortality: we die for it more than once during our lifetimes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Good deeds shun the light as anxiously as evil deeds: the latter fear that disclosure will bring on pain (as punishment), while the former fear that disclosure will take away pleasure (that pure pleasure, that pleasure per se, which immediately ceases once the vanity's satisfaction is added).
Friedrich Nietzsche
That is an artist as I would have an artist be, modest in his needs: he really wants only two things, his bread and his art--panemet Circen.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are the terrible ones who carry about in themselves the beast of prey, and have no choice except lusts or self-laceration. And even their lusts are self-laceration.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Behind a remarkable scholar we not infrequently find an average human being, and behind an average artist we often find a very remarkable human being.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is obvious that all sense has gone out of modern marriage which is, however, no objection to marriage but to modernity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sometimes people don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusions destroyed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Pardon me, my friends, I have ventured to paint my happiness on the wall.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It quite often happens that the old man is subject to the delusion of a great moral renewal and rebirth, and from this experience he passes judgments on the work and course of his life, as if he had only now become clear-sighted and yet the inspiration behind this feeling of well-being and these confident judgements is not wisdom, but weariness .
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
Only he who is man enough will release the woman in woman.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Speaking is a beautiful folly with that man dances over all things.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where I found the living, there I found the will to power even in the will of servants I found the will to be master.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thinking evil is making evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I fly in dreams, I know it is my privilege, I do not recall a single situation in dreams when I was unable to fly. To execute every sort of curve and angle with a light impulse, a flying mathematics - that is so distinct a happiness that it has permanently suffused my basic sense of happiness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The domestication (the culture) of man does not go deep--where it does go deep it at once becomes degeneration (type: the Christian). The 'savage' (or, in moral terms, the evil man) is a return to nature--and in a certain sense his recovery, his cure from 'culture'.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What really makes one indignant about suffering isn't the thing itself but the senselessness of it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
