More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever commits to paper what he suffers becomes a melancholy author: but he becomes a serious author when he tells us what he suffered and why he now reposes in joy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man's task is simple. He should cease letting his existence be a thoughtless accident.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The shortest route is not the most direct one, but rather the one where the most favorable winds swell our sails:Mthat is the lesson that seafarers teach. Not to abide by this lesson is to be obstinate: here, firmness of character is tainted with stupidity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you have an enemy, do not requite him evil with good, for that would put him to shame. Rather prove that he did you some good.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If that glad message of your Bible were written in your faces, you would not need to demand belief in the authority of that book in such stiff-necked fashion.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Youth is an unpleasant period for then it is not possible or not prudent to be productive in any sense whatsoever.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Art is essentially the affirmation, the blessing, and the deification of existence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Just look at the faces of the great Christians! They are the faces of great haters.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In art the end does not sanctify the means: but sacred means employed here can sanctify the end.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People who feel insecure in social situations never miss a chance to exhibit their dominance over close, submissive friends, whomthey put down publicly, in front of everyone--by teasing, for example.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Women are constituted in such a way that all truth (regarding men, love, children, society, the purpose of life) disgusts them, and in such a way that they try to revenge themselves on anyone who opens their eyes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Many brief follies--that is what you call love. And your marriage puts an end to many brief follies, with a single long stupidity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In a man devoted to knowledge, pity seems almost ridiculous, like delicate hands on a cyclops.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A man unconsciously imagines that where he is strong, where he feels most thoroughly alive, the element of his freedom must lie.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The grand style arises when beauty wins a victory over the monstrous.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What the philosopher is seeking is not truth, but rather the metamorphosis of the world into man.
Friedrich Nietzsche
His (the theologian) basic instinct of self preservation forbids him to respect reality at any point or even to let it get a word in.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I live in my own place - have never copied anyone even half, and at any master who lacks the grace - to laugh at himself - I laugh.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Certitude drives people mad.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Rendering oneself unarmed when one had been the best-armed, out of a height of feeling-that is the means to real peace, which must always rest on a peace of mind.
Friedrich Nietzsche
