More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
We must learn to love, learn to be kind, and this from the earliest youth if education or chance give us no opportunity to practice these feelings, our soul becomes dry and unsuited even to understanding the tender inventions of loving people.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Among austere men intimacy involves shame--and is something precious.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Like the creatures of the forest and the sea, I love To lose myself for a while.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A high civilization is a pyramid: it can stand only on a broad base its primary prerequisite is a strong and soundly consolidated mediocrity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Reason is the cause of our falsification of the evidence of the senses. In so far as the senses show becoming, passing away, change, they do not lie.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Was that life? Well then, once more!
Friedrich Nietzsche
And if a man goes through fire for his doctrine - what does that prove? Verily, it is more if your own doctrine comes out of your own fire.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For the purpose of knowledge we must know how to make use of the inward current which draws us towards a thing, and also of the current which after a time draws us away from it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How far is truth susceptible of embodiment? That is the question, that is the experiment.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The drive toward knowledge has a moral origin.
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
From which stars have we fallen to meet each other here?
Friedrich Nietzsche
There will be but few people who, when at a loss for topics of conversation, will not reveal the more secret affairs of their friends.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The visionary lies to himself, the liar only to others.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One must repay good and ill but why just to the person who did us good or ill?
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who recites dramatic works makes discoveries about his own character.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In being wildly natural we recover best from being unnatural, from being spiritual.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Anyone who has declared someone else to be an idiot, a bad apple, is annoyed when it turns out in the end that he isn't.
Friedrich Nietzsche
This is the crux of the moral pessimists: if they really wanted to promote their neighbor's redemption, then they would have to resolve themselves to spoiling existence for him, and thus to being his misfortune out of pity, they would have to--become evil!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Certitude drives people mad.
Friedrich Nietzsche
