More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
All I need is a sheet of paper and something to write with, and then I can turn the world upside down.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One is punished best for one's virtues.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A strong and well-constituted man digests his experiences (deeds and misdeeds all included) just as he digests his meats, even when he has some tough morsels to swallow.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A person must have a good memory to keep the promises he has made. A person must have a strong imagination to be able to have pity. So closely is morality tied to the quality of the intellect.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Mankind must work continually to produce individual great human beings - this and nothing else is the task... for the question is this : How can your life, the individual life, retain the highest value, the deepest significance? Only by living for the good of the rarest and most valuable specimens.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The value of life itself cannot be estimated.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How I understand the philosopher - as a terrible explosive, endangering everthing... my concept of the philosopher is worlds removed from any concept that would include even a Kant, not to speak of academic ruminants and other professors of philosophy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A person unlearns arrogance when he knows he is always among worthy human beings being alone fosters presumption. Young people are arrogant because they always associate with their own peers, those who are all really nothing but who would like to be very important.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The good displeases us when we are not up to it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Many die too late, and some die too early. Yet strangers soundeth the precept: Die at the right time!
Friedrich Nietzsche
A little poison now and then: that makes for pleasant dreams. And a lot of poison at the end, for a pleasant death.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Those who cannot understand how to put their thoughts on ice should not enter into the heat of debate.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There did he sit shrivelled in his chimney corner, fretting on account of his weak legs, world weary, will weary, and one day he suffocated through his excessive pity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When one is young, one venerates and despises without that art of nuances which constitutes the best gain of life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When a man reaches his maturity in understanding and in years, the feeling comes over him that his father was wrong to beget him.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him who maketh his virtue his inclination and destiny: thus, for the sake of his virtue, he is willing to live on, or live no more.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We are responsible to ourselves for our own existence consequently we want to be the true helmsman of this existence and refuse to allow our existence to resemble a mindless act of chance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One must repay good and ill but why just to the person who did us good or ill?
Friedrich Nietzsche
What does not destroy me, makes me stronger.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Science rushes headlong, without selectivity, without taste, at whatever is knowable, in the blind desire to know all at any cost.
Friedrich Nietzsche
