More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
A certain type of person strives to become a master over all, and to extend his force, his will to power, and to subdue all that resists it. But he encounters the power of others, and comes to an arrangement, a union, with those that are like him: thus they work together to serve the will to power. And the process goes on.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is the difference between someone who is convinced and one who is deceived? None, if he is well deceived.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In short, then, the religious cult is based upon the representations of sorcery between man and man, and the sorcerer is older than the priest.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You implanted your highest goal into the heart of those passions: then they became your virtues and joys.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you have hitherto believed that life was one of the highest value and now see yourselves disappointed, do you at once have to reduce it to the lowest possible price?
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
There is something laughable about the sight of authors who enjoy the rustling folds of long and involved sentences: they are trying to cover up their feet.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Along the journey we commonly forget its goal. Almost every vocation is chosen and entered upon as a means to a purpose but is ultimately continued as a final purpose in itself. Forgetting our objectives is the most frequent stupidity in which we indulge ourselves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Priests ... these turkey-cocks of God.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is a stupid humility that is quite common and when a person is afflicted with it, he is once and for all disqualified for being a disciple of knowledge.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Dreadful experiences raise the question whether he who experiences them, is not something dreadful also.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He has drawn back, only in order to have enough room for his leap
Friedrich Nietzsche
When gods die, they always die many sorts of death.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We come to recognize that playfulness, as a philosophical stance, can be very serious indeed and moreover, that it possesses an unfailing capacity to arouse ridicule and hostility in those among us who crave certainty, reverence, and restraint.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How can a man know himself? He is a thing dark and veiled and if the hare has seven skins, man can slough off seventy times seven and still not be able to say: this is really you, this is no longer outer shell.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We evaluate the services that anyone renders to us according to the value he puts on them, not according to the value they have for us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I hate you most because you attract, but are not strong enough to pull me to you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To use the same words is not a sufficient guarantee of understanding one must use the same words for the same genus of inward experience ultimately one must have one's experiences in common.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The golden age, when rambunctious spirits were regarded as the source of evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We are more pained when one of our friends is guilty of something shameful than when we do it ourselves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
