Quote
If you have an enemy, do not requite him evil with good, for that would put him to shame. Rather prove that he did you some good.

More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
My time has not yet come either some are born posthumously.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Out of a brotherly love we occasionally embrace this or that somebody (because we cannot embrace everybody): but we must never letour somebody know it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You shall become the person you are.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I am afraid that old women are more skeptical in their most secret heart of hearts than any man: they believe in the superficiality of existence as in its essence, and all virtue and profundity is to them merely a veil over this truth, a most welcome veil over a pudendum--and so a matter of decency and modesty, and nothing else.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thus the man who is responsive to artistic stimuli reacts to the reality of dreams as does the philosopher to the reality of existence he observes closely, and he enjoys his observation: for it is out of these images that he interprets life, out of these processes that he trains himself for life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I might believe in the Redeemer if his followers looked more redeemed.
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
There is sense in hoping for recognition in a distant future only when we take it for granted that mankind will remain essentially unchanged, and that whatever is great is not for one age only but will be looked upon as great for all time.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Great indebtedness does not make men grateful, but vengeful and if a little charity is not forgotten, it turns into a gnawing worm.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every man in creating the beautiful appearance of the dream worlds is a perfect artist.
Friedrich Nietzsche
After all, what would be beautiful if the contradiction had not first become conscious of itself, if the ugly had not first said to itself: I am ugly?.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Few are made for independence, it is the privilege of the strong.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Nothing is more pathological in our pathological modernity than this disease of Christian pity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I do not give alms I am not poor enough for that.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man, a hybrid of plant and ghost.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Verily, I do not like them, the merciful who feel blessed in their pity: they are lacking too much in shame. If I must pity, at least I do not want it known and if I do pity, it is preferably from a distance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I could dispense with nothing when I created the superman. His seed still carries all your evil and falsehood, your lies and yourignorance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Undeserved praise causes more pangs of conscience later than undeserved blame, but probably only for this reason, that our power of judgment are more completely exposed by being over praised than by being unjustly underestimated.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Woman was God's second mistake.
Friedrich Nietzsche
