More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Not with wrath do we kill, but with laughter. Come, let us kill the spirit of gravity!
Friedrich Nietzsche
So long as the priest, that professional negator, slanderer and poisoner of life, is regarded as a superior type of human being, there cannot be any answer to the question: What is Truth?
Friedrich Nietzsche
The people we keep standing in the anteroom of our favor either start fermenting or turn sour.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If we have our own why of life, we shall get along with almost any how. Man does not strive for pleasure only the Englishman does.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Germans are like women, you can scarcely ever fathom their depths - they haven't any.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To become the founder of a new religion one must be psychologically infallible in one's knowledge of a certain average type of souls who have not yet recognized that they belong together.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Those that achieve anything that looks beyond the vision and thinking of their peers provoke jealousy and hatred disguised as the ordinary.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Mathematics is merely the means to a general and ultimate knowledge of man.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In praise there is more obtrusiveness than in blame.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Heavy, heavy-hearted people grow lighter and rise occasionally to their surface through precisely that which makes others heavier,through hatred and love.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Precisely this is godliness--that there are gods, but no God.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Invisible threads are the strongest ties.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Rather perish than hate and fear, and twice rather perish than make oneself hated and feared — this must some day become the highest maxim for every single commonwealth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The consequences of our actions take hold of us, quite indifferent to our claim that meanwhile we have 'improved.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Body am I, and soul - so saith the child. And why should one not speak like children?
Friedrich Nietzsche
All preachers of morality, as also all theologians have a bad habit in common: all of them try to persuade man that he is very ill, and that a severe, final, radical cure is necessary.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A declaration of war on the masses by higher men is needed! ... Everything that makes soft and effeminate, that serves the end of the people or the feminine, works in favor of universal suffrage, i.e. the domination of the inferior men. But we should take reprisal and bring this whole affair to light and the bar of judgment.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To predict the behavior of ordinary people in advance, you only have to assume that they will always try to escape a disagreeable situation with the smallest possible expenditure of intelligence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Pitch-black winter nights live in my bones.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Foolish is my happiness, and foolish things will it speak: it is still too young—so have patience with it!
Friedrich Nietzsche
