More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Illness is a clumsy attempt to arrive at health: we must come to nature's aid with intellect.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No artist will tolerate the world for one second as it is.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For as long as they praise you, never forget that it is not yet your own path that you walk, but another person's.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Learn to see - accustoming the eye to calm, to patience, to letting-things-come-to-it learning to defer judgment, to encircle and encompass the question on all sides.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Around the hero everything turns into a tragedy, around the demigod, a satyr-play, and around God--what? perhaps a world?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever deliberately attempts to insure confidentiality with another person is usually in doubt as to whether he inspires that person's confidence in him. One who is sure that he inspires confidence attaches little importance to confidentiality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How far is truth susceptible of embodiment? That is the question, that is the experiment.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One must give value to their existence by behaving as if ones very existence were a work of art.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Unresolved dissonances between the characters and dispositions of the parents continue to reverberate in the nature of the child and make up the history of its inner sufferings.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One has renounced the great life when one renounces war.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All in all, punishment hardens and renders people more insensible it concentrates it increases the feeling of estrangement it strengthens the power of resistance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Original minds are not distinguished by being the first to see a new thing, but instead by seeing the old, familiar thing that is over-looked as something new.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A declaration of war on the masses by higher men is needed! ... Everything that makes soft and effeminate, that serves the end of the people or the feminine, works in favor of universal suffrage, i.e. the domination of the inferior men. But we should take reprisal and bring this whole affair to light and the bar of judgment.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Not to him who is offensive to us are we most unfair, but to him who doth not concern us at all.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whatever does not kill me makes me stronger.
Friedrich Nietzsche
