Friedrich Nietzsche
The concepts soul, spirit and last of all the concept immortal soul were invented in order to despise the body, in order to make it sick - holy - in order to cultivate an attitude of appalling disrespect for all things in life which deserve to be treated seriously i.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man is more sensitive to the contempt of others than to self-contempt.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Mankind must work continually to produce individual great human beings - this and nothing else is the task... for the question is this : How can your life, the individual life, retain the highest value, the deepest significance? Only by living for the good of the rarest and most valuable specimens.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I listened for the echo, and I heard only praise —
Friedrich Nietzsche
you must be ready to burn yourself in your own flame how could you rise anew if you have not first become ashes?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Dead are all gods: now we want the overman to live.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One who has given up any hope of winning a fight or has clearly lost it wants his style in fighting to be admired all the more.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Astrology presupposes that the heavenly bodies are regulated in their movements in harmony with the destiny of mortals: the moral man presupposes that that which concerns himself most nearly must also be the heart and soul of things.
Friedrich Nietzsche
