More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
If a man wishes to rid himself of a feeling of unbearable oppression, he may have to take hashish.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
The better the state is established, the fainter is humanity. To make the individual uncomfortable, that is my task.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
there they laugh: they do not understand me I am not the mouth for these ears.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Man is a rope, tied between beast and overman — a rope over an abyss.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A beautiful woman seductively dressed will never catch cold no matter how low-cut her gown.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Even today a crude sort of persecution is all that is required to create an honorable name for any sect, no matter how indifferent in itself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A bad conscience is easier to cope with than a bad reputation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A martyr's disciples suffer more than the martyr.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We are more pained when one of our friends is guilty of something shameful than when we do it ourselves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever writes in blood and aphorisms wants not to be learned but to be learned by heart.
Friedrich Nietzsche
