I despise mystics, they fancy themselves so deep, when they aren't even superficial.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Zarathustra was the first to consider the fight of good and evil the very wheel in the machinery of things: the transposition of morality into the metaphysical realm, as a force, cause, and end in itself, is his work. [...] Zarathustra created this most calamitous error, morality consequently, he must also be the first to recognize it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All great men are play actors of their own ideal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The degree and kind of a man's sexuality reach up into the ultimate pinnacle of his spirit.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Not with wrath do we kill, but with laughter. Come, let us kill the spirit of gravity!
Friedrich Nietzsche
i have never pondered over questions that are not questions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Art is the highest task and the proper metaphysical activity of this life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is it that endowed things with meaning, value, significance? The creating heart, which desired, and, out of its desire, created. It created joy and woe. It wanted to satiate itself with woe. We must take all the suffering that has been endured by men and animals upon ourselves and affirm it, and possess a goal in which it acquires reason.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In Bach there is still too much crude Christianity, crude Germanism, crude scholasticism he stands on the threshold of European (modern) music, but he looks back from there to the Middle Ages.
Friedrich Nietzsche
At the very moment when someone is beginning to take philosophy seriously, the whole world believes the opposite.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What? A great man? I only ever see the ape of his own ideal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We forget our guilt when we have confessed it to another, but the other does not usually forget it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Marriage was contrived for ordinary people, for people who are capable of neither great love nor great friendship, which is to say, for most people--but also for those exceptionally rare ones who are capable of love as well as of friendship.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One should not wish to enjoy where one does not give joy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Just look at the faces of the great Christians! They are the faces of great haters.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I no longer want to walk on worn soles.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People are always angry at anyone who chooses very individual standards for his life because of the extraordinary treatment which that man grants to himself, they feel degraded, like ordinary beings.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is the vanity of the vainest man compared with the vanity which the most modest possesses when, in the midst of nature and the world, he feels himself to be man!
Friedrich Nietzsche
When we are tired, we are attacked by ideas we conquered long ago.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A good seat on a horse steals away your opponent's courage and your onlooker's heart-what reason is there to attack? Sit like one who has conquered?
Friedrich Nietzsche
