More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
The parasites live where the great have little secret sores.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The idealist is incorrigible: if he is thrown out of his heaven he makes an ideal of his hell.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Undeserved praise causes more pangs of conscience later than undeserved blame, but probably only for this reason, that our power of judgment are more completely exposed by being over praised than by being unjustly underestimated.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Faith makes blessed. Consequently it lies.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Our drives are reducible to the will to power. The will to power is the ultimate fact at which we arrive.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Men are even lazier than they are timorous, and what they fear most is the troubles with which any unconditional honesty and nudity would burden them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The pure soul is a pure lie.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The beast in us must be[78] wheedled: ethic is necessary, that we may not be torn to pieces.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man is no longer an artist, he has become a work of art.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All that the world most needs today, is combined in the most seductive manner in his art, — the three great stimulants of exhausted people: brutality, artificiality and innocence (idiocy).
Friedrich Nietzsche
as though the Truth were such an innocent and incompetent creature as to require protectors!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The desire for a strong faith is not the proof of a strong faith, rather the opposite. If one has it one may permit oneself the beautiful luxury of skepticism: one is secure enough, fixed enough for it.
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
Fear is the mother of morality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Only ideas won by walking have any value.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The man loves danger and sport. That is why he loves woman, the most dangerous of all sports.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The 'kingdom of Heaven' is a condition of the heart - not something that comes 'upon the earth' or 'after death.'
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whereas the man of action binds his life to reason and its concepts so that he will not be swept away and lost, the scientific investigator builds his hut right next to the tower of science so that he will be able to work on it and to find shelter for himself beneath those bulwarks which presently exist.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Creation is the great redemption from suffering and all life's growing light. But the creator must be suffering if needed and accept much change.
Friedrich Nietzsche
From people who merely pray we must become people who bless.
Friedrich Nietzsche
