More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever does not know how to find the way to his ideal lives more frivolously and impudently than the man without an ideal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is the powerful who know how to honour, it is their art, their domain for invention.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is possible that the production of genius is reserved to a limited period of mankind's history.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Why couldn't the world that concerns us- be a fiction? And if somebody asked, 'but to be a fiction there surely belongs an author?'- couldn't one answer simply: 'Why? Doesn't this belongs perhaps belong to the fiction, too?'
Friedrich Nietzsche
What else is love but understanding and rejoicing in the fact that another person lives acts and experiences otherwise than we do?
Friedrich Nietzsche
But it is the same with man as with the tree. The more he seeketh to rise into the height and light, the more vigorously do his roots struggle earthward, downward, into the dark and deep — into the evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Art is essentially the affirmation, the blessing, and the deification of existence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The most intelligent men, like the strongest, find their happiness where others would find only disaster: in the labyrinth, in being hard with themselves and with others, in effort their delight is self-mastery in them asceticism becomes second nature, a necessity, as instinct.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is the truth, but a lie agreed upon.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The hour when you say, What does my happiness matter? It is poverty and filth, and a wretched complacency. Yet my happiness should justify existence itself!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Today as always, men fall into two groups: slaves and free men. Whoever does not have two-thirds of his day for himself, is a slave, whatever he may be: a statesman, a businessman, an official, or a scholar.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Dreadful experiences raise the question whether he who experiences them, is not something dreadful also.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In almost all sciences the fundamental knowledge is either found in earliest times or is still being sought.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When you stare into an abyss for a long time, the abyss also stares into you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is good? ye ask. To be brave is good. Let the little girls say: To be good is what is pretty, and at the same time touching.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Human life is inexplicable, and still without meaning: a fool may decide its fate.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The will to overcome an emotion, is ultimately only the will of another, or of several other, emotions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
This woman is beautiful and clever: but how much cleverer she would have become if she were not beautiful!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Art is the proper task of life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
