More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
People are always angry at anyone who chooses very individual standards for his life because of the extraordinary treatment which that man grants to himself, they feel degraded, like ordinary beings.
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
I have learned to walk: since then I have run. I have learned to fly: since then I do not have to be pushed in order to move. Now I am nimble, now I fly, now I see myself under myself, now a god dances within me.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Only he who is man enough will release the woman in woman.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Our salvation lies not in knowing, but in creating!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where there is the tree of knowledge, there is always Paradise: so say the most ancient and most modern serpents.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him who liveth in order to know, and seeketh to know in order that the Superman may hereafter live. Thus seeketh he his own down-going.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Only strong personalities can endure history, the weak are extinguished by it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When a man reaches his maturity in understanding and in years, the feeling comes over him that his father was wrong to beget him.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is it that endowed things with meaning, value, significance? The creating heart, which desired, and, out of its desire, created. It created joy and woe. It wanted to satiate itself with woe. We must take all the suffering that has been endured by men and animals upon ourselves and affirm it, and possess a goal in which it acquires reason.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Oh, how much is today hidden by science! Oh, how much it is expected to hide!
Friedrich Nietzsche
As a human being Plato mingles regal, exclusive, and self-contained features with melancholy compassion.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In the whole of the New Testament there is not one joke, that fact alone would invalidate any book.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The view that honesty is something, and even a virtue, belongs, it is true, to those private opinions which are forbidden in this age of public opinions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I was in darkness, but I took three steps and found myself in paradise. The first step was a good thought, the second, a good word and the third, a good deed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I know no other way to associate with great tasks than as play: as a sign of greatness, this is an essential presupposition.
Friedrich Nietzsche
So long as men praise you, you can only be sure that you are not yet on your own true path but on someone else's.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In large states public education will always be mediocre, for the same reason that in large kitchens the cooking is usually bad.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Our destiny exercises its influence over us even when, as yet, we have not learned its nature: it is our future that lays down the law of our today
Friedrich Nietzsche
We ought to face our destiny with courage.
Friedrich Nietzsche
