The perfect woman is a higher type of humanity than the perfect man, and also something much rarer. The natural history of animals furnishes grounds in support of this theory.

More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
That which an age considers evil is usually an unseasonable echo of what was formerly considered good - the atavism of an old ideal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One pays dearly for being immortal: one must die many times during his life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The domestication (the culture) of man does not go deep--where it does go deep it at once becomes degeneration (type: the Christian). The 'savage' (or, in moral terms, the evil man) is a return to nature--and in a certain sense his recovery, his cure from 'culture'.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Exhaustion is the shortest way to equality and fraternity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Precisely this is godliness--that there are gods, but no God.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The English are the people of consummate cant.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I am not a human being, I am dynamite.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Nothing is more pathological in our pathological modernity than this disease of Christian pity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is sense in hoping for recognition in a distant future only when we take it for granted that mankind will remain essentially unchanged, and that whatever is great is not for one age only but will be looked upon as great for all time.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The child as a monument to the passion of two people the will to oneness in two.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you believed more in life you would fling yourself less to the moment.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Great intellects are skeptical.
Friedrich Nietzsche
no one talks more passionately about his rights than he who in the depths of his soul doubts whether he has any
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sometimes all you need to do to win clever people over to a principle is to present it in the form of a shocking paradox.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Many a one cannot loosen his own fetters, but is nevertheless his friend's emancipator.
Friedrich Nietzsche
As soon as we climb higher than those who had at one time admired us, we appear to them as though we have sunken and fallen down:for, in any event, they had at one time supposed that they were with us (even if it were through us) on the heights.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When the gratitude that many owe to one discards all modesty, then there is fame.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To explore the whole sphere of the modern soul, to have sat in every nook- my ambition, my torture, and my happiness
Friedrich Nietzsche
When an idea is just rising on the horizon, the soul's temperature with respect to it is usually very cold. Only gradually does the idea develop its warmth, and it is hottest (which is to say, exerting its greatest influence) when belief in the idea is already once again in decline.
Friedrich Nietzsche
