Image
If you want me to believe in your redeemer, you are going to have to look a lot more redeemed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
I devote myself to what I love the most, and for this very reason I hesitate to designate it with lofty words: I do not want to risk believing that it is a sublime compulsion, a law, which I obey: I love what I love the most too much to wish to appear to it as one compelled.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Do I advise you to love the neighbor? I suggest rather to escape from the neighbor and to love those who are the farthest away from you. Higher than the love for the neighbor is the love for the man who is distant and has still to come.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
They would have to sing better songs for me to learn to have faith in their Redeemer and his disciples would have to look more redeemed!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image

Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
I was in darkness, but I took three steps and found myself in paradise. The first step was a good thought, the second, a good word and the third, a good deed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image

Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
A joke is an epigram on the death of a feeling.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
I obviously do everything to be hard to understand myself
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
It is terrible to die of thirst in the ocean. Do you have to salt your truth so heavily that it does not even-quench thirst any more?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
You gave him an opportunity of showing greatness of character and he did not seize it. He will never forgive you for that.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
He who recites dramatic works makes discoveries about his own character.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Words are but symbols for the relations of things to one another and to us nowhere do they touch upon absolute truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
It is the most sensual men who need to flee women and torment their bodies.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
The love of truth has its reward in heaven and even on earth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Suspicious.- To admit a belief merely because it is a custom - but that means to be dishonest, cowardly, lazy! - And so could dishonesty, cowardice and laziness be the preconditions for morality?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
An artist chooses his subjects: that is the way he praises.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
History belongs above all to the man...who needs models, teachers, comforters and cannot find them among his contemporaries.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
In short, then, the religious cult is based upon the representations of sorcery between man and man, and the sorcerer is older than the priest.
