Friedrich Nietzsche
Genuine historical knowledge requires nobility of character, a profound understanding of human existence - not detachment and objectivity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is certain that the Jew, if he desired-or if they were driven to it, as the antisemites seem to wish-could now have the ascendancy, nay, literally the supremacy, over Europe that they are not working or planning for that end is equally sure... The resourcefulness of the modern Jews, both in mind and soul, is extraordinary.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The bad gains respect through imitation, the good loses it especially in art.
Friedrich Nietzsche
