More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
[Heraclitus] did not require humans or their sort of knowledge, since everything into which one may inquire he despises [as being] in contrast [to his own] inward-turning wisdom. [To him] all learning from others is a sign of nonwisdom, because the wise man focuses his vision on his own intelligence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I overcame myself, the sufferer I carried my own ashes to the mountains I invented a brighter flame for myself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We hear only those questions for which we are in a position to find answers.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Liberalism is the transformation of mankind into cattle.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who humbles himself wants to be exalted.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thinking evil is making evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators the creator seeks -- those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters for everything about him is ripe for the harvest.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever has really sacrificed anything, knows that he wanted and got something in return.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is regrettable that a Dostoyevsky did not live near this most interesting of all decadents (Jesus Christ) - I mean someone who would have known how to sense the very stirring charm of such a mixture of the sublime, the sickly, and the childlike.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whom do you call bad?--Those who always want to induce shame.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You must await your thirst and allow it to become complete: otherwise you will never discover your spring, which can never be anyone else's!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Do not be deceived! The busiest people harbor the greatest weariness, their restlessness is weakness--they no longer have the capacity for waiting and idleness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One can lie with the mouth, but with the accompanying grimace one nevertheless tells the truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sometimes people don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusions destroyed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
As soon as we are shown the existence of something old in a new thing, we are pacified.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Scholars who become politicians are usually assigned the comic role of having to be the good conscience of state policy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The best author will be the one who is ashamed to become a writer.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Only with the ultimate knowledge of all things will man have come to know himself. For things are but the boundaries of man.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who has attained intellectual emancipation to any extent cannot, for a long time, regard himself otherwise than as a wanderer on the face of the earth and not even as a traveller towards a final goal, for there is no such thing.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For the longest time, marriage has had a guilty conscience about itself. Should we believe it?--Yes, we should believe it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
