Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Poets and writers who are in love with the superlative all want to do more than they can.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where is the lightning to lick you with its tongue? Where is the madness with which you should be cleansed? Behold, I show you the Superman. He is this lightning, he is this madness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Wit is the epitaph of an emotion.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
A heart full of courage and cheerfulness needs a little danger from time to time, or the world gets unbearable.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Every high degree of power always involves a corresponding degree of freedom from good and evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Precisely this is godliness--that there are gods, but no God.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The higher its type, the more rarely a thing succeeds.
Friedrich Nietzsche
History belongs above all to the man...who needs models, teachers, comforters and cannot find them among his contemporaries.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Men after death ... are understood worse than men of the moment, but heard better.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In the mountains, the shortest way is from peak to peak: but for that you must have long legs
Friedrich Nietzsche
Without the errors which lie in the assumption of morality, man would have remained an animal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Without forgetting it is quite impossible to live at all.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every profound spirit needs a mask: even more, around every profound spirit a mask is continually growing.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I know no other way to associate with great tasks than as play: as a sign of greatness, this is an essential presupposition.
Friedrich Nietzsche
