More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
The love of power is the demon of mankind.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset that from now on I can't believe you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sometimes in conversation the sound of our own voice distracts us and misleads us into making assertions that in no way express our true opinions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I too have been in the underworld, as was Odysseus, and I will often be there again not only sheep have I sacrificed so as to beable to speak with a few dead souls, but neither have I spared my own blood as well.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Strong hope is a much greater stimulant of life than any single realised joy could be.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For it is only as an aesthetic phenomenon that existence and the world are eternally justified.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I believe only in French culture and consider everything in Europe that calls itself 'culture' a misunderstanding, not to speak of German culture.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No journey is too great, when one finds what one seeks.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I want to learn more and more to see as beautiful what is necessary in things:—then I shall be one of those who make things beautiful. Amor fati: let that be my love from henceforth!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Everything which distinguishes man from the animals depends upon this ability to volatilize perceptual metaphors in a schema, and thus to dissolve an image into a concept.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Germans are incapable of any conception of greatness: proof Schumann.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The saying, The Magyar is much too lazy to be bored, is worth thinking about. Only the most subtle and active animals are capable of boredom.--A theme for a great poet would be God's boredom on the seventh day of creation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The destiny of the human race is to widen the gap separating it from the lower races of animals. Any code of morality which retains its permanence and authority after the conditions of existence which gave rise to it have changed, works against this upward progress of man.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Men submit from habit to everything that seeks power.
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
To go on vegetating in cowardly dependence on physicians and machinations, after the meaning of life, the right to life, has been lost, that ought to prompt a profound contempt in society.
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
One is punished best for one's virtues.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Too long, the earth has been a madhouse!
Friedrich Nietzsche
