Friedrich Nietzsche
A few hours of mountain climbing make a blackguard and a saint two rather similar creatures.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How do you expect to learn to dance when you have not even learned to walk! And above the dancer is still the flyer and his bliss.

Friedrich Nietzsche
My conception of freedom. — The value of a thing sometimes does not lie in that which one attains by it, but in what one pays for it — what it costs us. Liberal institutions cease to be liberal as soon as they are attained: later on, there are no worse and no more thorough injurers of freedom than liberal institutions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Mothers easily become jealous of their sons' friends when they are particularly successful. As a rule a mother loves herself in her son more than she does the son himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Lift up your hearts, my brothers, high, higher! And don't forget about your legs either! Lift up your legs as well, you good dancers, and better yet--stand also on your heads!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The spirit of the poet craves spectators... even if only buffaloes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The abdomen is the reason why man does not readily take himself to be a god.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Mistrust those in whom the urge to punish is strong.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When you look into an abyss, the abyss also looks into you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One had better put on gloves before handling the New Testament. The presence of so much filth makes it highly advisable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
