More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
A good aphorism is too hard for the tooth of time, and is not worn away by all the centuries, although it serves as food for every epoch.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Those who are slow to know suppose that slowness is the essence of knowledge.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is more wisdom in your body than in your deepest philosophy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One's own self is well hidden from one's own self of all mines of treasure, one's own is the last to be dug up.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are two things a real man likes - danger and play and he likes woman because she is the most dangerous of play things.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is life? A continuous praise and blame.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where one despises, one cannot wage war.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Verily, I do not like them, the merciful who feel blessed in their pity: they are lacking too much in shame. If I must pity, at least I do not want it known and if I do pity, it is preferably from a distance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People who comprehend a thing to its very depths rarely stay faithful to it forever. For they have brought its depths into the light of day: and in the depths there is always much that is unpleasant to see.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Perhaps man will rise ever higher as soon as he ceases to flow out into a god.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Lift up your hearts, my brothers, high, higher! And don't forget about your legs either! Lift up your legs as well, you good dancers, and better yet--stand also on your heads!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The most spiritual human beings, assuming they are the most courageous, also experience by far the most painful tragedies: but it is precisely for this reason that they honor life, because it brings against them its most formidable weapons.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is no pre-established harmony between the furtherance of truth and the well-being of mankind.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sensuality often makes love grow too quickly, so that the root remains weak and is easy to pull out.
Friedrich Nietzsche
And if ye cannot be saints of knowledge, then, I pray you, be at least its warriors. They are the companions and forerunners of such saintship.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man wishes woman to be peaceable, but in fact she is essentially warlike, like the cat.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Speaking generally, punishment hardens and numbs, it produces concentration, it sharpens the consciousness of alienation, it strengthens the power of resistance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I do not know what the spirit of a philosopher could more wish to be than a good dancer. For the dance is his ideal, also his fine art, finally also the only kind of piety he knows, his 'divine service.'
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sometimes we remain true to a cause simply because its opponents are unfailingly tasteless.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We have no organ at all for knowledge, for truth: we know (or believe or imagine) precisely as much as may be useful in the interest of the human herd, the species: and even what is here called usefulness is in the end only a belief, something imagined and perhaps precisely that most fatal piece of stupidity by which we shall one day perish.
Friedrich Nietzsche
