More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Vanity is the fear of appearing original: it is thus a lack of pride, but not necessarily a lack of originality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Speaking generally, punishment hardens and numbs, it produces concentration, it sharpens the consciousness of alienation, it strengthens the power of resistance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The noble type of man feels himself to be the determiner of values, he does not need to be approved of, he judges 'what harms me is harmful in itself', he knows himself to be that which in general accords honour to things, he creates values.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Be your self! All you are now doing, thinking, desiring, is not you yourself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We ought to face our destiny with courage.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In the last analysis, even the best man is evil: in the last analysis, even the best woman is bad.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Again and again I am brought up against it, and again and again I resist it: I don't want to believe it, even though it is almost palpable: the vast majority lack an intellectual conscience indeed, it often seems to me that to demand such a thing is to be in the most populous cities as solitary as in the desert.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is difficult to preach, this morality of mediocrity! It may never admit what it is and what it wants! It must speak about restraint and worth and duty and love of one's neighbor.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Close beside my knowledge lies my black ignorance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who rejoices even at the stake triumphs not over pain but over the absence of pain where he had anticipated feeling it. A parable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How much truth can a spirit bear, how much truth can a spirit dare? ... that became for me more and more the real measure of value.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A friend should be a master at guessing and keeping still: you must not want to see everything.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The snake which cannot cast its skin has to die. As well the minds which are prevented from changing their opinions they cease to be mind.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Anti-theses.- The most senile thing ever thought about man is contained in the celebrated saying 'the ego is always hateful' the most childish is the even more celebrated 'love thy neighbor as thyself'. - In the former, knowledge of human nature has ceased, in the latter it has not yet even begun.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Many a one cannot loosen his own fetters, but is nevertheless his friend's emancipator.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Men are cowards when it comes to the eternally feminine: and the little women know it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The greatest progress that the human race has made lies in learning how to make correct inferences.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A heart full of courage and cheerfulness needs a little danger from time to time, or the world gets unbearable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Unexplained, obscure matters are regarded as more important than explained, clear ones.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People to whom their daily life appears too empty and monotonous easily grow religious this is comprehensible and excusable, only they have no right to demand religious sentiments from those whose daily life is not empty and monotonous.
Friedrich Nietzsche
