The body is a big sagacity, a plurality with one sense, a war and a peace, a flock and a shepherd.

More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Verily, I do not want to be like the ropemakers: They drag out their threads and always walk backwards.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man and man's earth are unexhausted and undiscovered. Wake and listen! Verily, the earth shall yet be a source of recovery. Remain faithful to the earth, with the power of your virtue. Let your gift-giving love and your knowledge serve the meaning of the earth.
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
You I advise not to work, but to fight. You I advise not to peace, but to victory. Let your work be a fight, let your peace be a victory!
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is nobler to declare oneself wrong than to insist on being right --especially when one is right.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Today I love myself as I love my god: who could charge me with a sin today? I know only sins against my god but who knows my god?
Friedrich Nietzsche
We evaluate the services that anyone renders to us according to the value he puts on them, not according to the value they have for us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When you look into an abyss, the abyss also looks into you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Enjoy life. This is not a dress rehearsal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When one is young, one venerates and despises without that art of nuances which constitutes the best gain of life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All beings so far have created something beyond themselves and do you want to be the ebb of this great flood and even go back to the beasts rather than overcome man? What is the ape to man? A laughingstock or a painful embarrassment. And man shall be just that for the overman: a laughingstock or a painful embarrassment.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For the purpose of knowledge we must know how to make use of the inward current which draws us towards a thing, and also of the current which after a time draws us away from it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When anyone apologizes to us he has to do it very expertly: otherwise we might easily come to see ourselves as the guilty party and experience unpleasant feelings.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We feign pity when we want to demonstrate our ascendancy over feelings of hostility: but usually in vain. Whenever we notice this,there is an accompanying surge in those hostile sensations.
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
This world is the will to power and nothing besides!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Against war one might say that it makes the victor stupid and the vanquished malicious. In its favor, that in producing these two effects it barbarizes, and so makes the combatants more natural. For culture it is a sleep or a wintertime, and man emerges from it stronger for good and for evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Children from humble families must be taught how to command just as other children must be taught how to obey.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People who comprehend a thing to its very depths rarely stay faithful to it forever. For they have brought its depths into the light of day: and in the depths there is always much that is unpleasant to see.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is not enough religion in the world even to destroy religion.
Friedrich Nietzsche
