More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Madness is the exception in individuals but the rule in groups.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
We ought to learn from the kine one thing: ruminating.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Against war it may be said that it makes the victor stupid and the vanquished revengeful.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who does not desire much more from things than knowledge of them easily makes peace with his soul.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One will seldom go wrong if one attributes extreme actions to vanity, average ones to habit, and pretty ones to fear.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I know of no better life purpose than to perish in attempting the great and the impossible.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A friend whose hopes we cannot satisfy is a friend we would rather have as an enemy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A good writer possesses not only his own spirit but also the spirit of his friends.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One thing a man must have: either a naturally light disposition or a disposition lightened by art and knowledge.
Friedrich Nietzsche
