More quotes by 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
The one conclusive argument that has at all times discouraged people from drinking a poison is not that it kills but rather that it tastes bad.
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
Those who cannot understand how to put their thoughts on ice should not enter into the heat of debate.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is happening to me happens to all fruits that grow ripe. It is the honey in my veins that makes my blood thicker, and my soul quieter.
Friedrich Nietzsche
one does not only wish to be understood when one writes one wishes just as surely not to be understood.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A man should not play the coward to his deeds. He should not repudiate them once he has performed them. Pangs of conscience are indecent.
Friedrich Nietzsche
O my brothers, am I then cruel? But I say: that which is falling should also be pushed!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The criminal type is the type of the strong human being under unfavorable circumstances: a strong human being made sick.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The individual has always to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I have not come to know atheism as a result of logical reasoning and still less as an event in my life: in me it is a matter of instinct.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If virtue goes to sleep, it will be more vigorous when it awakes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I have forgotten my umbrella.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Under peaceful conditions a warlike man sets upon himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Moderation sees itself as beautiful it is unaware that in the eye of the immoderate it appears black and sober and consequently ugly-looking.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When good friends praise a gifted person he often appears to be delighted with them out of politeness and goodwill, but in reality he feels indifferent.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What then in the last resort are the truths of mankind? They are the irrefutable errors of mankind.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Higher than thou shalt stands I will (the heroes), and higher than I will stands I am (the Greek gods).
Friedrich Nietzsche
Only ideas won by walking have any value.
Friedrich Nietzsche
From whatever you wish to know and measure you must take your leave, at least for a time. Only when you have left the town can yousee how high its towers rise above the houses.
Friedrich Nietzsche
