Friedrich Nietzsche
Every man in creating the beautiful appearance of the dream worlds is a perfect artist.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Behold! I am weary of my wisdom, like the bee that has gathered too much honey I need hands outstretched to take it from me. I wish to spread it and bestow it, until the wise have once more become joyous in their folly, and the poor happy in their riches.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is not to everyone's taste that truth should be pronounced pleasant. But at least let no one believe that error becomes truth when it is pronounced unpleasant.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One who has given up any hope of winning a fight or has clearly lost it wants his style in fighting to be admired all the more.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Why is it that wellnesses are not as contagious as illnesses--generally speaking, but also especially regarding taste? Or are there epidemics of health?
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is not in our hands to prevent our birth but we can correct this mistake - for in some cases it is a mistake.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If we have injured someone, giving him the opportunity to make a joke about us is often enough to provide him personal satisfaction, or even to win his good will.
Friedrich Nietzsche
