More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
I go in solitude, so as not to drink out of everybody's cistern. When I am among the many I live as the many do, and I do not think I really think after a time it always seems as if they want to banish myself from myself and rob me of my soul.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Thoughts are the shadows of our feelings - always darker, emptier and simpler.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Without cruelty there is no festival: thus the longest and most ancient part of human history teaches and in punishment there is so much that is festive!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Ye are ugly? Well then, my brethren, take the sublime about you, the mantle of the ugly!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thus the man who is responsive to artistic stimuli reacts to the reality of dreams as does the philosopher to the reality of existence he observes closely, and he enjoys his observation: for it is out of these images that he interprets life, out of these processes that he trains himself for life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Our shortcomings are the eyes with which we see the ideal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The wheel and the brake have different duties, but also one in common: to hurt one another.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The danger of our culture.- We belong to a period of which the culture is in danger of being destroyed by the appliances of culture.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Only strong personalities can endure history, the weak are extinguished by it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
