Friedrich Nietzsche
Science rushes headlong, without selectivity, without taste, at whatever is knowable, in the blind desire to know all at any cost.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The condition that gives birth to a rule is not the same as the condition to which the rule gives birth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
But are there many honest people who will admit that it is pleasing to give pain?
Friedrich Nietzsche
'He who seeks may easily get lost himself. It is a crime to go apart and be alone.' Thus speaks the herd.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Everyone becomes brave when he observes one who despairs.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Only in war are you holy, and when you are robbers and cruel.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The spiritualization of sensuality is called love: it is a great triumph over Christianity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
However much we may feel for the misery of someone close to us, we always act with some artificiality in their presence. We hold-back from telling them everything we think, often because we do not genuinely mean what we say or because we take a pleasure in their plight, thankful that we are not affected.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who denies his own vanity usually possesses it in so brutal a form that he instinctively shuts his eyes to avoid the necessity of despising himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In a man devoted to knowledge, pity seems almost ridiculous, like delicate hands on a cyclops.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Love and hatred are not blind, but are blinded by the fire they bear within themselves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We set no special value on the possession of a virtue until we percieve that it is entirely lacking in our adversary.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Words are but symbols for the relations of things to one another and to us nowhere do they touch upon absolute truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
