More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
The enormous expectation having to do with sexual love and the shame involved in this expectation degrades all a woman's perspectives from the start.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Some men have sighed over the abduction of their wives, but many more have sighed because no one wanted to abduct theirs.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are people who want to make men's lives more difficult for no other reason than the chance it provides them afterwards to offer their prescription for alleviating life their Christianity, for instance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To explore the whole sphere of the modern soul, to have sat in every nook- my ambition, my torture, and my happiness
Friedrich Nietzsche
When a scholar of the old culture vows no longer to have anything to do with men who believe in progress, he is right. For the old culture has its greatness and goodness behind it, and an historical education forces one to admit that it can never again be fresh.
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
All preachers of morality, as also all theologians have a bad habit in common: all of them try to persuade man that he is very ill, and that a severe, final, radical cure is necessary.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Faith as an imperative is a veto against science-in praxi, it means lies at any price.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No artist tolerates reality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Our knowledge will take its revenge on us, just as ignorance exacted its revenge during the Middle Ages.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Anyone who has declared someone else to be an idiot, a bad apple, is annoyed when it turns out in the end that he isn't.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Children from humble families must be taught how to command just as other children must be taught how to obey.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Antithesis is the narrow gateway through which error most prefers to worm its way towards truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To one who is accustomed to thinking a lot, every new thought that he hears or reads about immediately appears as a link in a chain.
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
The body is a big sagacity, a plurality with one sense, a war and a peace, a flock and a shepherd.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The elimination of the will altogether and the switching off of the emotions all and sundry, is tantamount to the elimination of reason: intellectual castration.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Artists may here have a more subtle scent: they know only too well that it is precisely when they cease to act 'voluntarily' and do everything of necessity that their feeling of freedom, subtlety, fullness of power, creative placing, disposing, shaping reaches its height - in short, that necessity and 'freedom of will' are then one in them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A light has dawned for me: I need companions, living ones, not dead companions and corpses which I carry with me wherever I wish. But I need living companions who follow me because they want to follow themselves- and who want to go where I want to go.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who does not need to lie is proud of not being a liar.
Friedrich Nietzsche
