More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
However unchristian it may seem, I do not even bear any ill feeling towards myself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Men have hitherto treated women like birds which have strayed down to them from the heights as something more delicate, more fragile, more savage, stranger, sweeter, soulful--but as something which has to be caged up so that it shall not fly away.
Friedrich Nietzsche
As a result, nature is something entirely different from what comes to mind when we invoke its name.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Pity aims just as little at the pleasure of others as malice at the pain of others Per-Se.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For the longest time, marriage has had a guilty conscience about itself. Should we believe it?--Yes, we should believe it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is not in how one soul approaches another but in how it withdraws that I knowr its affinity and solidarity with the other.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Unpleasant, even dangerous, qualities can be found in every nation and every individual: it is cruel to demand that the Jew be an exception. In him, these qualities may even be dangerous and revolting to an unusual degree and perhaps the young stock-exchange Jew is altogether the most disgusting invention of mankind.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Children from humble families must be taught how to command just as other children must be taught how to obey.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For it is only as an aesthetic phenomenon that existence and the world are eternally justified.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The bad gains respect through imitation, the good loses it especially in art.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thus the will to power strives towards oppositions, towards displeasure. There is a will to suffering at the foundation of all organic life (contrary to happiness as goal).
Friedrich Nietzsche
The noble soul reveres itself
Friedrich Nietzsche
A change of values - that means, a change of the creators of values. He who has to be a creator always has to destroy.
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
We have to be careful that in throwing out the devil, we don't throw out the best part of ourselves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Books for general reading always smell bad the odor of common people hangs around them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The wisest man would be the one richest in contradictions, who has, as it were, antennae for all types of men---as well as his great moments of grand harmony---a rare accident even in us! A sort of planetary motion---
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whenever the strength of a belief strongly steps into the foreground, we must infer a certain weakness of demonstrability and the improbability of that belief.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Before the effect one believes in different causes than one does after the effect.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is regrettable that a Dostoyevsky did not live near this most interesting of all decadents (Jesus Christ) - I mean someone who would have known how to sense the very stirring charm of such a mixture of the sublime, the sickly, and the childlike.
Friedrich Nietzsche
