More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
All rejection and negation indicates a deficiency in fertility: fundamentally, if only we were good plowland we would allow nothing to go unused, and in every thing, event, and person we would welcome manure, rain, or sunshine.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Woman was God's second mistake.
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
I am not a man, I am dynamite!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Scholars who become politicians are usually assigned the comic role of having to be the good conscience of state policy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A letter is an unannounced visit, the postman the agent of rude surprises. One ought to reserve an hour a week for receiving letters and afterwards take a bath.

Friedrich Nietzsche
[Heraclitus] concluded that coming-to-be itself could not be anything evil or unjust.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Immature is the love of the youth, and immature his hatred of man and earth. His mind and the wings of his spirit are still tied down and heavy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
War has always been the grand sagacity of every spirit which has grown too inward and too profound its curative power lies even in the wounds one receives.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In order to be somebody you have to hold even your shadow in high regard.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Democracy represents the disbelief in all great men and in all elite societies: everybody is everybody's equal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is sense in hoping for recognition in a distant future only when we take it for granted that mankind will remain essentially unchanged, and that whatever is great is not for one age only but will be looked upon as great for all time.
Friedrich Nietzsche
no one talks more passionately about his rights than he who in the depths of his soul doubts whether he has any
Friedrich Nietzsche
The truthful man ends up realizing that he always lies.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Evaluation is creation: hear it, you creators! Evaluating is itself the most valuable treasure of all that we value. It is only through evaluation that value exists: and without evaluation the nut of existence would be hollow. Hear it, you creators!
Friedrich Nietzsche
In almost all sciences the fundamental knowledge is either found in earliest times or is still being sought.
Friedrich Nietzsche
