Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Thoughts are the shadows of our feelings - always darker, emptier and simpler.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Thou seekest disciples? Then thou seekest ciphers.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Wit is the epitaph of an emotion.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is a terrible thought, to contemplate that an immense number of mediocre thinkers are occupied with really influential matters.
Friedrich Nietzsche
God is a gross answer, an indelicacy against us thinkers- at bottom merely a gross prohibition for us: you shall not think!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Let us beware of saying that death is the opposite of life. The living being is only a species of the dead, and a very rare species.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whatever the State saith is a lie whatever it hath is a theft: all is counterfeit in it, the gnawing, sanguinary, insatiate monster.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To forget one's purpose is the commonest form of stupidity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
