More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
For it is only as an aesthetic phenomenon that existence and the world are eternally justified.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The relatives of a suicide hold it against him that out of consideration for their reputation he did not remain alive.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Immature is the love of the youth, and immature his hatred of man and earth. His mind and the wings of his spirit are still tied down and heavy.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
It is my ambition to say in ten sentences what others say in a whole book.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Seducing one's neighbor to a good opinion and then afterwards believing devoutly in this neighbor's opinion--who can match women in this clever ploy?
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is life? A continuous praise and blame.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The same passions in man and woman nonetheless differ in tempo hence man and woman do not cease misunderstanding one another.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators the creator seeks -- those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters for everything about him is ripe for the harvest.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Anyone who has looked deeply into the world may guess how much wisdom lies in the superficiality of men. The instinct that preserves them teaches them to be flighty light, and false.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The drive toward knowledge has a moral origin.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I mistrust all systematizers and avoid them. the will to a system is a lack of integrity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
And if a man goes through fire for his doctrine - what does that prove? Verily, it is more if your own doctrine comes out of your own fire.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The spiritualization of sensuality is called love: it is a great triumph over Christianity.
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
For those who need consolation no means of consolation is so effective as the assertion that in their case no consolation is possible: it implies so great a degree of distinction that they at once hold up their heads again.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Words are but symbols for the relations of things to one another and to us nowhere do they touch upon absolute truth... Through words and concepts we shall never reach beyond the wall off relations, to some sort of fabulous primal ground of things.
Friedrich Nietzsche
