More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Once the decision has been made, close your ear even to the best counter argument: sign of a strong character. Thus an occasional will to stupidity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Of all evil I deem you capable: therefore I want the good from you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Live dangerously. Build your cities on the slopes of Vesuvius.
Friedrich Nietzsche
With one more talent one frequently stands with greater instability than with one less, as a table stands better on three legs than on four.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The golden age, when rambunctious spirits were regarded as the source of evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Call me whatever you like I am who I must be.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Reason is the cause of our falsification of the evidence of the senses. In so far as the senses show becoming, passing away, change, they do not lie.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Some are made modest by great praise, others insolent.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Everything which distinguishes man from the animals depends upon this ability to volatilize perceptual metaphors in a schema, and thus to dissolve an image into a concept.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Character is determined more by the lack of certain experiences than by those one has had.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The weak and misbegotten shall perish: first principle of our brotherly love. And they shall be given every assistance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who has attained intellectual emancipation to any extent cannot, for a long time, regard himself otherwise than as a wanderer on the face of the earth and not even as a traveller towards a final goal, for there is no such thing.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The doer is merely a fiction added to the deed ? the deed is everything.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Life without music is only error, exhaustion, exile... Indeed, there is nothing that concerns me more than the fate of music.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where is the lightning to lick you with its tongue? Where is the madness with which you should be cleansed? Behold, I show you the Superman. He is this lightning, he is this madness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Virtues are dangerous as vices insofar as they are allowed to rule over one as authorities and not as qualities one develops oneself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every power draws its ultimate consequences at every moment.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Very early in my life I took the question of the relation of art to truth seriously: even now I stand in holy dread in the face of this discordance. My first book was devoted to it. The Birth of Tragedy believes in art on the background of another belief
Friedrich Nietzsche
You look up when you wish to be exalted. And I look down because I am exalted.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A friend should be a master at guessing and keeping still: you must not want to see everything.
Friedrich Nietzsche
