More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
One will rarely err if extreme actions be ascribed to vanity, ordinary actions to habit, and mean actions to fear.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The melancholia of everything completed!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The craving for equality can express itself either as a desire to pull everyone down to our own level (by belittling them, excluding them, tripping them up) or as a desire to raise ourselves up along with everyone else (by acknowledging them, helping them, and rejoicing in their success).
Friedrich Nietzsche
In magnanimity there is the same amount of egoism as in revenge, but egoism of a different quality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You gave him an opportunity of showing greatness of character and he did not seize it. He will never forgive you for that.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The consequence is that every man comes to know himself solely in terms of his power for defence and attack.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I would only believe in a god who could dance. And when I saw my devil I found him serious, thorough, profound, and solemn: it was the spirit of gravity—through him all things fall. Not by wrath does one kill but by laughter. Come, let us kill the spirit of gravity!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Just as soon as we notice that someone has to force himself to pay attention when dealing and talking with us, we have a valid demonstration that he does not love us or that he does not love us anymore.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One should not be deceived: great spirits are skeptics ... Strength, FREEDOM which is born of the strength and overstrength of the spirit, proves itself by skepticism. Men of conviction are not worthy of the least consideration in fundamental questions of value and disvalue. Convictions are prisons.
Friedrich Nietzsche
My formula for happiness: a Yes, a No, a straight line, a goal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For both parties in a controversy, the most disagreeable way of retaliating is to be vexed and silent for the aggressor usually regards the silence as a sign of contempt.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Human life is inexplicable, and still without meaning: a fool may decide its fate.
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
The man who does not wish to belong to the mass needs only to cease taking himself easily let him follow his conscience, which calls to him: Be your self! All you are now doing, thinking, desiring, is not you yourself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is happening to me happens to all fruits that grow ripe. It is the honey in my veins that makes my blood thicker, and my soul quieter.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man's task is simple. He should cease letting his existence be a thoughtless accident.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thoughts are the shadows of our feelings - always darker, emptier and simpler.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I climb upon the highest mountains, laughing at all tragedies - whether real or imaginary.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In pain there is as much wisdom as in pleasure: like the latter it is one of the best self preservatives of a species.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Wisdom sets bounds even to knowledge.
Friedrich Nietzsche
