Friedrich Nietzsche
Perhaps I know best why it is man alone who laughs he alone suffers so deeply that he had to invent laughter.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One never dives into the water to save a drowning man more eagerly than when there are others present who dare not take the risk.
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
there they laugh: they do not understand me I am not the mouth for these ears.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You implanted your highest goal into the heart of those passions: then they became your virtues and joys.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is Genius?- To aspire to a lofty aim and to will the means to that aim.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thoughts are the shadows of our feelings - always darker, emptier and simpler.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The earth has become small, and on it hops the last man, who makes everything small. His race can no more be exterminated than the flea can be. The last man lives the longest.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is not to everyone's taste that truth should be pronounced pleasant. But at least let no one believe that error becomes truth when it is pronounced unpleasant.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The consequence is that every man comes to know himself solely in terms of his power for defence and attack.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Life, and you, and I, and all of us together became for a while interesing to ourselves once more.
Friedrich Nietzsche
