More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
I know of no better life purpose than to perish in attempting the great and the impossible.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The quality of a marriage is proven by its ability to tolerate an occasional exception.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sometimes it is harder to accede to a thing than it is to see its truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
From whatever you wish to know and measure you must take your leave, at least for a time. Only when you have left the town can yousee how high its towers rise above the houses.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One sticks to an opinion because he prides himself on having come to it on his own, and another because he has taken great pains to learn it and is proud to have grasped it: and so both do so out of vanity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In a man devoted to knowledge, pity seems almost ridiculous, like delicate hands on a cyclops.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Real dancers are the ones who can hear the music in their soul.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The most general deficiency in our sort of culture and education is gradually dawning on me: no one learns, no one strives towards, no one teaches--enduring loneliness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I see many soldiers could I but see many warriors! Uniform one calleth what they wear may it not be uniform what they therewith hide!
Friedrich Nietzsche
To be ashamed of one's immorality: that is a step on the staircase at whose end one is also ashamed of one's morality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
This is the fundamental idea of culture, insofar as it sets but one task for each of us: to further the production of the philosopher, of the artist, and of the saint within us and outside us, and thereby to work at the consummation of nature.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Principle of Christian love: it insists upon being well paid in the end.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Generally speaking, the greater a woman's beauty, the greater her modesty.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All idealism is falsehood in the face of necessity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If ye would go up high, then use your own legs! Do not get yourselves carried aloft do not seat yourselves on other people's backs and heads!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Become who you are. Make what only you can make.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Egoism is the very essence of a noble soul.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who knoweth the reader, doeth nothing more for the reader. Another century of readers - and spirit itself will stink.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A thinker sees his own actions as experiments and questions--as attempts to find out something. Success and failure are for him answers above all.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Arrogance on the part of the meritorious is even more offensive to us than the arrogance of those without merit: for merit itself is offensive.
Friedrich Nietzsche
