More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Not the intensity but the duration of high feelings makes high men.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The job of rearing a child consists of making conscious activities unconscious.

Friedrich Nietzsche
Master-morality and Slave-morality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Only ideas won by walking have any value.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To demand of strength that it should not express itself as strength, that it should not be a desire to overcome, a desire to throw down, a desire to become master, a thirst for enemies and resistances and triumphs, is just as absurd as to demand of weakness that it should express itself as strength.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All of life is a dispute over taste and tasting.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
The anarchist and the Christian have a common origin.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Against boredom even gods struggle in vain.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Words are but symbols for the relations of things to one another and to us nowhere do they touch upon absolute truth... Through words and concepts we shall never reach beyond the wall off relations, to some sort of fabulous primal ground of things.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The philosopher caught in the nets of language.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Jealous is every virtue of the others, and a dreadful thing is jealousy. Even virtues may succumb by jealousy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We are so fond of being out among nature, because it has no opinions about us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For this remains as I have already pointed out the essential difference between the two religions of decadence : Buddhism promises nothing, but actually fulfils Christianity promises everything, but fulfils nothing.
Friedrich Nietzsche
