For all things are baptized at the font of eternity, and beyond good and evil good and evil themselves, however, are but intervening shadows and damp afflictions and passing clouds.

More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
A heart full of courage and cheerfulness needs a little danger from time to time, or the world gets unbearable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
At one time or another, almost every politician needs an honest man so badly that, like a ravenous wolf, he breaks into a sheep-fold: not to devour the ram he has stolen, however, but rather to conceal himself behind its wooly back.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When a scholar of the old culture vows no longer to have anything to do with men who believe in progress, he is right. For the old culture has its greatness and goodness behind it, and an historical education forces one to admit that it can never again be fresh.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One cannot read the New Testament without acquired admiration for whatever it abuses not to speak of the wisdom of this world, which an impudent wind bag tries to dispose of by the foolishness of preaching.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Master-morality and Slave-morality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Bad cooks - and the utter lack of reason in the kitchen - have delayed human development longest and impaired it most.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where there is the tree of knowledge, there is always Paradise: so say the most ancient and most modern serpents.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Kindliness, friendliness, the courtesy of the heart, are ever-flowing streams of non egoistic impulses, and have given far more powerful assistance to culture than even those much more famous demonstrations which are called pity, mercy, and self-sacrifice.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Ye shall be those whose eyes ever seek for an enemy - for YOUR enemy. And with some of you there is hatred at first sight.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Women are considered deep - why? Because one can never discover any bottom to them. Women are not even shallow.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The soul must have its chosen sewers to carry away its ordure. This function is performed by persons, relationships, professions, the fatherland, the world, or finally, for the really arrogant - I mean our modern pessimists - by the Good God himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One ought to hold on to one's heart for if one lets it go, one soon loses control of the head too.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One is punished best for one's virtues.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Once spirit was God, then it became man, and now it is even becoming mob.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The radical hostility, the deadly hostility against sensuality, is always a symptom to reflect on: it entitles us to suppositions concerning the total state of one who is excessive in this manner.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I speak and the child plays: who can be more serious than we are?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Love brings to light the lofty and hidden characteristics of the lover--what is rare and exceptional in him: to that extent it caneasily be deceptive with respect to what is normal in him.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People who feel insecure in social situations never miss a chance to exhibit their dominance over close, submissive friends, whomthey put down publicly, in front of everyone--by teasing, for example.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The irrationality of a thing is no argument against its existence, rather a condition of it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man is the only animal that must be encouraged to live.
Friedrich Nietzsche
