Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
If we make sacrifices in doing good or in doing ill, it does not alter the ultimate value of our actions even if we stake our life in the cause, as martyrs do for the sake of our church : it is a sacrifice to our longing for power, or for the purpose of conserving our sense of power.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is evil?-Whatever springs from weakness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Not doubt, certainty is what drives one insane.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A moral system valid for all is basically immoral.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is only when we have ceased to be the followers of our followers that we comprehend how meaningless followers are.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Great things demand that we either remain silent about them or speak in a great manner: in a great manner, that is-cynically and with innocence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In compassionate men, severity is a virtue.
Friedrich Nietzsche
