More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Science rushes headlong, without selectivity, without taste, at whatever is knowable, in the blind desire to know all at any cost.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What then in the last resort are the truths of mankind? They are the irrefutable errors of mankind.
Friedrich Nietzsche
[Heraclitus] did not require humans or their sort of knowledge, since everything into which one may inquire he despises [as being] in contrast [to his own] inward-turning wisdom. [To him] all learning from others is a sign of nonwisdom, because the wise man focuses his vision on his own intelligence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever is related to me in the height of his aspirations will experience veritable ecstasies of learning for I come from heights that no bird ever reached in its flight, I know abysses into which no foot ever strayed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Posthumous men-myself, for example-are not as well understood as timely ones, but we are listened to better. More precisely: we are never understood-hence our authority.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When we have to change our mind about a person, we hold the inconvenience he causes us very much against him.
Friedrich Nietzsche
This is one of the stout-hearted old warriors: he is angry with civilization because he supposes that its aim is to make all goodthings--honors, treasures, beautiful women--accessible even to cowards.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A living being seeks, above all, to discharge its strength. Life is will to power.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No honey is sweeter than that of knowledge.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The most spiritual human beings, assuming they are the most courageous, also experience by far the most painful tragedies: but it is precisely for this reason that they honor life, because it brings against them its most formidable weapons.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Someone who does not write books, who thinks a lot, and who lives in unsatisfying society will usually be a good letter- writer.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Be careful when you fight the monsters, lest you become one.
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
From people who merely pray we must become people who bless.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You say a good cause justifies any war but I say a good war justifies any cause.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One can promise actions, but not feelings, for the latter are involuntary. He who promises to love forever or hate forever or be forever faithful to someone is promising something that is not in his power.
Friedrich Nietzsche
History is nothing more than the belief in the senses, the belief in falsehood.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The most dangerous physicians are those born actors who imitate born physicians with a perfectly deceptive guile.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To be moral, correct, and virtuous is to be obedient to an old established law and custom.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I do not know what the spirit of a philosopher could more wish to be than a good dancer. For the dance is his ideal, also his fine art, finally also the only kind of piety he knows, his 'divine service.'
Friedrich Nietzsche
