More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
It is thus only this personal feeling of misery that we get rid of by acts of pity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Love and hatred are not blind, but are blinded by the fire they bear within themselves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A friend whose hopes we cannot satisfy is a friend we would rather have as an enemy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Almost two thousand years, and no new god!
Friedrich Nietzsche
All rejection and negation indicates a deficiency in fertility: fundamentally, if only we were good plowland we would allow nothing to go unused, and in every thing, event, and person we would welcome manure, rain, or sunshine.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who would learn to fly one day must first learn to stand and walk and run and climb and dance one cannot fly into flying.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The ascetic makes a necessity of virtue.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In pain there is as much wisdom as in pleasure: like the latter it is one of the best self preservatives of a species.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Remain true to the earth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sometimes it just takes stronger eyeglasses to cure those who are in love--and someone with the ability to imagine a face or a figure twenty years older might perhaps pass through life quite undisturbed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In the whole of the New Testament there is not one joke, that fact alone would invalidate any book.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Great things demand that we either remain silent about them or speak in a great manner: in a great manner, that is-cynically and with innocence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A declaration of war on the masses by higher men is needed! ... Everything that makes soft and effeminate, that serves the end of the people or the feminine, works in favor of universal suffrage, i.e. the domination of the inferior men. But we should take reprisal and bring this whole affair to light and the bar of judgment.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Be your self! All you are now doing, thinking, desiring, is not you yourself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The thought of suicide is a great source of comfort: with it a calm passage is to be made across many a bad night.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The best friend will probably acquire the best wife, because a good marriage is founded on the talent for friendship.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One often contradicts an opinion when what is uncongenial is really the tone in which it was conveyed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I am afraid that old women are more skeptical in their most secret heart of hearts than any man: they believe in the superficiality of existence as in its essence, and all virtue and profundity is to them merely a veil over this truth, a most welcome veil over a pudendum--and so a matter of decency and modesty, and nothing else.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I have forgotten my umbrella.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Before the effect one believes in different causes than one does after the effect.
Friedrich Nietzsche
