Christianity in particular should be dubbed a great treasure-chamber of ingenious consolations, such a store of refreshing, soothing, deadening drugs has it accumulated within itself.

More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
With the strength of his spiritual sight and insight the distance, and as it were the space, around man continually expands: his world grows deeper, ever new stars, ever new images and enigmas come into view.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who does not desire much more from things than knowledge of them easily makes peace with his soul.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A subject for a great poet would be God's boredom after the seventh day of creation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sensuality often makes love grow too quickly, so that the root remains weak and is easy to pull out.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Christianity, alcohol the two great means of corruption.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We believe that we know something about the things themselves when we speak of trees, colors, snow, and flowers and yet we possess nothing but metaphors for things - metaphors which correspond in no way to the original entities.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man is more sensitive to the contempt of others than to self-contempt.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We are doubly willing to jump into the water after some one who has fallen in, if there are people present who have not the courage to do so.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who denies his own vanity usually possesses it in so brutal a form that he instinctively shuts his eyes to avoid the necessity of despising himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Christianity has the rancor of the sick at its very core-the instinct against the healthy, against health. Everything that is well-constructed, proud, gallant and, above all, beautiful gives offense to its ears and eyes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every man is a creative cause of what happens, a primum mobile with an original movement.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him who laboureth and inventeth, that he may build the house for the Superman, and prepare for him earth, animal, and plant: for thus seeketh he his own down-going.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Refinement of Shame. People are not ashamed to think something foul, but they are ashamed when they think these foul thoughts are attributed to them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
And if ye cannot be saints of knowledge, then, I pray you, be at least its warriors. They are the companions and forerunners of such saintship.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People who, out of an inborn moderation, leave every glass standing only half-emptied refuse to admit that everything in the world has its sediments and dregs.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No journey is too great, when one finds what one seeks.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you are too weak to give yourselves your own law, then a tyrant shall lay his yoke upon you and say: Obey! Clench your teeth and obey! And all good and evil shall be drowned in obedience to him.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When our brain feels too weak to deal with our opponent's objections, our heart answers by casting suspicion on their underlying motives.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Rendering oneself unarmed when one had been the best-armed, out of a height of feeling-that is the means to real peace, which must always rest on a peace of mind.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Of all evil I deem you capable: therefore I want the good from you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
