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.

More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Should not the giver be thankful that the receiver received? Is not giving a need? Is not receiving, mercy?
Friedrich Nietzsche
War has always been the grand sagacity of every spirit which has grown too inward and too profound its curative power lies even in the wounds one receives.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Some people do not become thinkers simply because their memories are too good.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The patient. The pine tree seems to listen, the fir tree to wait: and both without impatience: - they give no thought to the little people beneath them devoured by their impatience and their curiosity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Was that life? Well then, once more!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Original minds are not distinguished by being the first to see a new thing, but instead by seeing the old, familiar thing that is over-looked as something new.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is not the strengths, but the durations of great sentiments that make great men.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Buddhism is a hundred times as realistic as Christianity it is part of its living heritage that it is able to face problems objectively and coolly it is the product of long centuries of philosophical speculation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whom do I hate most among the rabble of today? The socialist rabble, the chandala apostles, who undermine the instinct, the pleasure, the worker's sense of satisfaction with his small existence-who make him envious, who teach him revenge. The source of wrong is never unequal rights but the claim of equal rights.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The best friend will probably acquire the best wife, because a good marriage is founded on the talent for friendship.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Memory says, 'I did that.' Pride replies, 'I could not have done that.' Eventually, memory yields.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Science rushes headlong, without selectivity, without taste, at whatever is knowable, in the blind desire to know all at any cost.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Germans are like women, you can scarcely ever fathom their depths - they haven't any.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What good is all this free-thinking, modernity, and turncoat flexibility if at some gut level you are still a Christian, a Catholic, and even a priest!
Friedrich Nietzsche
one does not only wish to be understood when one writes one wishes just as surely not to be understood.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Life is the will to power our natural desire to dominate and reshape the world to fit our own preferences and assert our personal strength to the fullest degree.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Mothers easily become jealous of their sons' friends when they are particularly successful. As a rule a mother loves herself in her son more than she does the son himself.
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
If a woman possesses manly virtues, she is to be run away from and if she does not possess them, she runs away herself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
