More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
The wreckage of stars - I built a world from this wreckage.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are the terrible ones who carry about in themselves the beast of prey, and have no choice except lusts or self-laceration. And even their lusts are self-laceration.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I desire that your conjectures should not reach beyond your creative will. Could you create a god? Then do not speak to me of any gods.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When I contemplated purpose I also contemplated chance and foolishness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every word is a prejudice.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To produce music is also in a sense to produce children.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We are unknown to ourselves, we men of knowledge - and with good reason. We have never sought ourselves - how could it happen that we should ever find ourselves? It has rightly been said: Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also our treasure is where the beehives of our knowledge are.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Out of love, women become entirely what it is that they are in the imaginations of the men who love them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I fear that, with our current veneration for the natural and the real, we have arrived at the opposite pole to all idealism, and have landed in the region of the waxworks.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is the vanity of the vainest man compared with the vanity which the most modest possesses when, in the midst of nature and the world, he feels himself to be man!
Friedrich Nietzsche
We cannot even reproduce our thoughts entirely in words.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Our body is simply a social structure made of many souls.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For a tree to become tall it must grow tough roots among the rocks.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where there is the tree of knowledge, there is always Paradise: so say the most ancient and most modern serpents.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For those who need consolation no means of consolation is so effective as the assertion that in their case no consolation is possible: it implies so great a degree of distinction that they at once hold up their heads again.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A little health now and again is the ailing person's best remedy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man, a hybrid of plant and ghost.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The charm of knowledge would be small indeed, were it not that there is so much shame to be overcome on the way to it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is possible to imagine a society flushed with such a sense of power that it could afford to let its offenders go unpunished.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every word has its fragrance: there is a harmony and a disharmony of fragrances, and hence of words.
Friedrich Nietzsche
