More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
The State is the coldest of all cold monsters.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Existence begins in every instant.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The best friend will probably acquire the best wife, because a good marriage is founded on the talent for friendship.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The 'kingdom of Heaven' is a condition of the heart - not something that comes 'upon the earth' or 'after death.'
Friedrich Nietzsche
No artist tolerates reality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We must repay goodness and wickedness: but why exactly to the person who has done us a good or a wicked turn?
Friedrich Nietzsche
The last Christian died on a cross.
Friedrich Nietzsche
That which does not kill us makes us stronger.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The noble type of man feels himself to be the determiner of values, he does not need to be approved of, he judges 'what harms me is harmful in itself', he knows himself to be that which in general accords honour to things, he creates values.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Anyone who has looked deeply into the world may guess how much wisdom lies in the superficiality of men. The instinct that preserves them teaches them to be flighty light, and false.
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
We are responsible to ourselves for our own existence consequently we want to be the true helmsman of this existence and refuse to allow our existence to resemble a mindless act of chance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sometimes it just takes stronger eyeglasses to cure those who are in love--and someone with the ability to imagine a face or a figure twenty years older might perhaps pass through life quite undisturbed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
And once you are awake, you shall remain awake eternally.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Compassion for the friend should conceal itself under a hard shell.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Pity is the most agreeable feeling among those who have little pride and no prospects of great conquests.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We are unknown to ourselves, we men of knowledge - and with good reason. We have never sought ourselves - how could it happen that we should ever find ourselves? It has rightly been said: Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also our treasure is where the beehives of our knowledge are.
Friedrich Nietzsche
there they laugh: they do not understand me I am not the mouth for these ears.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One ought to hold on to one's heart for if one lets it go, one soon loses control of the head too.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you know the why, you can live any how.
Friedrich Nietzsche
