Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
I teach you the Overman. Man is something that shall be overcome. What have you done to overcome him? ... The time has come for man to set himself a goal. The time has come to plant the seed to his highest hope.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sensuality often makes love grow too quickly, so that the root remains weak and is easy to pull out.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who is not a bird should not build his nest over abysses.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Why is it that wellnesses are not as contagious as illnesses--generally speaking, but also especially regarding taste? Or are there epidemics of health?
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is not the strengths, but the durations of great sentiments that make great men.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Everything about woman is a riddle, and everything about woman has a single solution: that is, pregnancy
Friedrich Nietzsche
