More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
He who recites dramatic works makes discoveries about his own character.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The trodden worm curls up. This testifies to its caution. It thus reduces its chances of being trodden upon again. In the language of morality: Humility.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Posthumous men-myself, for example-are not as well understood as timely ones, but we are listened to better. More precisely: we are never understood-hence our authority.
Friedrich Nietzsche
After all, what would be beautiful if the contradiction had not first become conscious of itself, if the ugly had not first said to itself: I am ugly?.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What doesn't kill you make you stronger.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Horrible experiences lead us to wonder whether the person who experiences them might not be something horrible.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you believed more in life you would fling yourself less to the moment.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We belong to an age whose culture is in danger of perishing through the means to culture.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators the creator seeks -- those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters for everything about him is ripe for the harvest.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What we do in dreams we also do when we are awake: we invent and fabricate the person with whom we associate - and immediately forget we have done so.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who cannot obey himself will be commanded. That is the nature of living creatures.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I believe only in French culture and consider everything in Europe that calls itself 'culture' a misunderstanding, not to speak of German culture.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is very noble hypocrisy not to talk of one's self.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The sensible author writes for no other posterity than his own--that is, for his age--so as to be able even then to take pleasurein himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Emerson is a person who lives instinctively on ambrosia - and leaves everything indigestible on his plate.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I welcome all the signs indicating that a more manly and warlike age is commencing, which will, above all, bring heroism again into honour!
Friedrich Nietzsche
One often contradicts an opinion when what is uncongenial is really the tone in which it was conveyed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Rendering oneself unarmed when one had been the best-armed, out of a height of feeling-that is the means to real peace, which must always rest on a peace of mind.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We believe that we know something about the things themselves when we speak of trees, colors, snow, and flowers and yet we possess nothing but metaphors for things - metaphors which correspond in no way to the original entities.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A little health now and again is the ailing person's best remedy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
