More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Linguistic danger to spiritual freedom.- Every word is a prejudice.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We feign pity when we want to demonstrate our ascendancy over feelings of hostility: but usually in vain. Whenever we notice this,there is an accompanying surge in those hostile sensations.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No one dies of fatal truths nowadays: there are too many antidotes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The desire for a strong faith is not the proof of a strong faith, rather the opposite. If one has it one may permit oneself the beautiful luxury of skepticism: one is secure enough, fixed enough for it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Prejudice of the learned. - The learned judge correctly that people of all ages have believed they know what is good and evil, praise- and blameworthy. But it is a prejudice of the learned that we now know better than any other age.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is it that endowed things with meaning, value, significance? The creating heart, which desired, and, out of its desire, created. It created joy and woe. It wanted to satiate itself with woe. We must take all the suffering that has been endured by men and animals upon ourselves and affirm it, and possess a goal in which it acquires reason.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every word has its fragrance: there is a harmony and a disharmony of fragrances, and hence of words.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Art depends upon the inexactitude of sight.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To have and to want more that is life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Digressions, objections, delight in mockery, carefree mistrust are signs of health.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Words are but symbols for the relations of things to one another and to us nowhere do they touch upon absolute truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
On the heights it is warmer than those in the valley imagine.
Friedrich Nietzsche
So far no one had had enough courage and intelligence to reveal me to my dear Germans. My problems are new, my psychological horizon frighteningly comprehensive, my language bold and clear there may well be no books written in German which are richer in ideas and more independent than mine.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Ten times must you laugh during the day, and be cheerful otherwise your stomach, the father of affliction, will disturb you in the night.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The usual false conclusions of mankind are these: a thing exists, therefore it has a right to exist.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The scaffolding must be removed once the house is built.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A strong and well-constituted man digests his experiences (deeds and misdeeds all included) just as he digests his meats, even when he has some tough morsels to swallow.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I assess the power of a will by how much resistance, pain, torture it endures and knows how to turn to its advantage.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The arrogance that accompanies merit offends us even more than the arrogance of people who are lacking in merit: since merit itself offends us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Precisely the least, the softest, lightest, a lizard's rustling, a breath, a flash, a moment - a little makes the way of the best happiness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
