Quote

Unpleasant, even dangerous, qualities can be found in every nation and every individual: it is cruel to demand that the Jew be an exception. In him, these qualities may even be dangerous and revolting to an unusual degree and perhaps the young stock-exchange Jew is altogether the most disgusting invention of mankind.

More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche

Image
How lovely it is that there are words and sounds. Are not words and sounds rainbows and illusive bridges between things which are eternally apart?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Necessity is an interpretation, not a fact.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Body am I entirely, and nothing else and soul is only a word for something about the body.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
A woman may very well form a friendship with a man, but for this to endure, it must be assisted by a little physical antipathy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Happiness is the feeling that power increases - that resistance is being overcome.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
I despise mystics, they fancy themselves so deep, when they aren't even superficial.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
That is the most extreme form of nihilism: nothingness (the meaningless) eternally!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
And so while dreams are the individual man's play with reality, the sculptor's art is (in a broader sense) the play with dreams.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Under peaceful conditions a warlike man sets upon himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
For what purpose humanity is there should not even concern us: why you are here, that you should ask yourself: and if you have no ready answer, then set for yourself goals, high and noble goals, and perish in pursuit of them!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
One will seldom go wrong if one attributes extreme actions to vanity, average ones to habit, and pretty ones to fear.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
As far as Germany extends it ruins culture.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
The great man fights the elements in his time that hinder his own greatness, in other words his own freedom and sincerity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
God created woman. And boredom did indeed cease from that moment-but many other things ceased as well!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
But thought is one thing, the deed is another, and the image of the deed still another: the wheel of causality does not roll between them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Against war one might say that it makes the victor stupid and the vanquished malicious. In its favor, that in producing these two effects it barbarizes, and so makes the combatants more natural. For culture it is a sleep or a wintertime, and man emerges from it stronger for good and for evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
When you look into an abyss, the abyss also looks into you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Life, and you, and I, and all of us together became for a while interesing to ourselves once more.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Error has made man so deep, sensitive, and inventive that he has put forth such blossoms as religions and arts. Pure knowledge could not have been capable of it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
The beautiful exists just as little as the true. In every case it is a question of the conditions of preservation of a certain type of man: thus the herd-man will experience the value feeling of the true in different things than will the overman.
Friedrich Nietzsche
