More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
He who knows himself to be profound endeavors to be clear he who would like to appear profound to the crowd endeavors to be obscure.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you have hitherto believed that life was one of the highest value and now see yourselves disappointed, do you at once have to reduce it to the lowest possible price?
Friedrich Nietzsche
We ought to learn from the kine one thing: ruminating.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When anyone apologizes to us he has to do it very expertly: otherwise we might easily come to see ourselves as the guilty party and experience unpleasant feelings.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The unlucky hand dealt to clear and precise writers is that people assume they are superficial and so do not go to any trouble inreading them: and the lucky hand dealt to unclear ones is that the reader does go to some trouble and then attributes the pleasure he experiences in his own zeal to them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Success has always been a great liar.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One should not go into churches if one wants to breathe pure air.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Ultimately one loves one's desires and not that which is desired.

Friedrich Nietzsche
In almost all sciences the fundamental knowledge is either found in earliest times or is still being sought.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To be the equal of one's opponent-this is the first condition of an honourable duel.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Socrates and Plato are right: whatever man does he always does well, that is, he does that which seems to him good (useful) according to the degree of his intellect, the particular standard of his reasonableness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The definition of morality: Morality is the idiosyncrasy of decadents having the hidden desire to revenge themselves upon life - and being successful.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where I found the living, there I found the will to power even in the will of servants I found the will to be master.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him who maketh his virtue his inclination and destiny: thus, for the sake of his virtue, he is willing to live on, or live no more.
Friedrich Nietzsche
On the mountains of truth you can never climb in vain: either you will reach a point higher up today, or you will be training your powers so that you will be able to climb higher tomorrow.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In affability there is no hatred of men, but for that very reason there is all too much contempt for men.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One should die proudly when it is no longer possible to live proudly.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How I understand the philosopher - as a terrible explosive, endangering everthing... my concept of the philosopher is worlds removed from any concept that would include even a Kant, not to speak of academic ruminants and other professors of philosophy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A few hours of mountain climbing make a blackguard and a saint two rather similar creatures.
Friedrich Nietzsche
