More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
The snake that cannot shed its skin perishes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A good writer possesses not only his own spirit but also the spirit of his friends.
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
Moderation sees itself as beautiful it is unaware that in the eye of the immoderate it appears black and sober and consequently ugly-looking.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where do your greatest dangers lie?--In pity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To find everything profound - that is an inconvenient trait. It makes one strain one's eyes all the time, and in the end one finds more than one might have wished.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is our needs that interpret the world our drives and their For and Against. Every drive is a kind of lust to rule each one has its perspective that it would like to compel all other drives to accept as a norm.
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
Whatever a theologian regards as true must be false: there you have almost a criterion of truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For the woman, the man is a means: the end is always the child.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It's not the intensity of the man, but the duration of his intensity that makes the man great.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Creating-that is the great salvation from suffering, and life's alleviation. But for the creator to appear, suffering itself is needed, and much transformation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The moral earth, too, is round! The moral earth, too, has its antipodes! The antipodes, too, have their right to exist! There is still another world to be discovered--and more than one! Set sail, you philosophers!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Only where there are graves are there resurrections.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is always a certain noise in applause: even in the applause we give ourselves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thoughts are the shadows of our feelings - always darker, emptier and simpler.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Courage is the best slayer - courage which attacketh, for in every attack there is the sound of triumph.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Humility has the toughest hide.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Very early in my life I took the question of the relation of art to truth seriously: even now I stand in holy dread in the face of this discordance. My first book was devoted to it. The Birth of Tragedy believes in art on the background of another belief
Friedrich Nietzsche
Great intellects are skeptical.
Friedrich Nietzsche
