Friedrich Nietzsche
Why is it that wellnesses are not as contagious as illnesses--generally speaking, but also especially regarding taste? Or are there epidemics of health?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Liberal institutions straightway cease being liberal the moment they are soundly established: Once this is attained, no more grievous and more thorough enemies of freedom exist than liberal institutions.
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
For our self respect depends upon our ability to make requital, for good or for evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
After Buddha was dead, his shadow was still shown for centuries in a cave.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Life, and you, and I, and all of us together became for a while interesing to ourselves once more.
