More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
For a significant man woman, the one thought he values greatly, to the laughter and scorn of insignificant men, is a key to hidden treasure chambers for those others, it is nothing but a piece of old iron.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For some natures, changing their opinions is just as much a requirement of cleanliness as changing their clothes: for others, however, it is merely a requirement of vanity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Never to read another book that was born and baptized (with ink) at the same time.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Precisely the least, the softest, lightest, a lizard's rustling, a breath, a flash, a moment - a little makes the way of the best happiness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When we cannot stand certain people, we try to have suspicions about them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It was Christianity, with its heartfelt resentment against life, that first made something unclean of sexuality: it threw filth on the origin, on the essential fact of our life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I do not know what the spirit of a philosopher could more wish to be than a good dancer. For the dance is his ideal, also his fine art, finally also the only kind of piety he knows, his 'divine service.'
Friedrich Nietzsche
If a man have a strong faith he can indulge in the luxury of skepticism.
Friedrich Nietzsche
This sign I give you: every people speaks its tongue of good and evil, which the neighbor does not understand. It has invented its own language of customs and rights.
Friedrich Nietzsche
And so do you suppose it must be a piece-work because it has been given to you (and could only be given to you) in pieces?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Reason is the cause of our falsification of the evidence of the senses. In so far as the senses show becoming, passing away, change, they do not lie.
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
Ah, there are so many things betwixt heaven and earth of which only the poets have dreamed!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Once the decision has been made, close your ear even to the best counter argument: sign of a strong character. Thus an occasional will to stupidity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Joy wants the eternity of all things, wants deep, wants deep eternity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Discontent is the seed of ethics.
Friedrich Nietzsche
An artist chooses his subjects: that is the way he praises.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I despise mystics, they fancy themselves so deep, when they aren't even superficial.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Human existence basically is──a never to be completed imperfect tense.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We pay dearly for immortality: we die for it more than once during our lifetimes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
