Friedrich Nietzsche
The spiritualization of sensuality is called love: it is a great triumph over Christianity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The truth is ugly: we have art so as not to perish from the truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Our shortcomings are the eyes with which we see the ideal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is evil?-Whatever springs from weakness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The really royal calling of the philosopher (as expressed by Alcuin the Anglo-Saxon): To correct what is wrong, and strengthen the right, and raise what is holy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are two different types of people in the world, those who want to know, and those who want to believe.
Friedrich Nietzsche
