More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
This tremendous event is still on its way, still wandering it has not yet reached the ears of men. Lightning and thunder require time the light on the stars requires time deeds though done, still require time to be seen and heard. This deed is still more distant from them than the most distant stars - and yet they have done it themselves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The flame is not as bright to itself as it is to those it illuminates: so too the sage.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A little poison now and then: that makes for pleasant dreams. And a lot of poison at the end, for a pleasant death.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The man who does not wish to be one of the mass only needs to cease to be easy on himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I want to teach men the sense of their existence, which is the Superman, the lightning out of the dark cloud man.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Many a one cannot loosen his own fetters, but is nevertheless his friend's emancipator.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What does not destroy me, makes me stronger.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Mastery has been achieved when one neither makes a mistake nor hesitates in the performance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is only those who know how to feel that this is not good who devise improvements.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There would be no sunshine in society if the born flatterers, I mean the so-called amiable people, did not bring it in with them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
So far there has been no philosopher in whose hands philosophy has not grown into an apology for knowledge on this point, at least, every one is an optimist, that the greatest usefulness must be ascribed to knowledge. They are all tyrannized over by logic, and this is optimism in its essence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When the gratitude that many owe to one discards all modesty, then there is fame.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We set no special value on the possession of a virtue until we percieve that it is entirely lacking in our adversary.
Friedrich Nietzsche
State, I call it, where they all drink poison, the good and the wicked state, where they all lose themselves, the good and the wicked state, where they all call their slow suicide-life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Illness is a clumsy attempt to arrive at health: we must come to nature's aid with intellect.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Hold a true friend with both your hands.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Behind a remarkable scholar we not infrequently find an average human being, and behind an average artist we often find a very remarkable human being.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Creating-that is the great salvation from suffering, and life's alleviation. But for the creator to appear, suffering itself is needed, and much transformation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
