Friedrich Nietzsche
The devotion of the greatest is to encounter risk and danger, and play dice for death.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To be ashamed of one's immorality: that is a step on the staircase at whose end one is also ashamed of one's morality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When one rows it is not the rowing which moves the ship: rowing is only a magical ceremony by means of which one compels a demon to move the ship.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thus do I want man and woman to be: the one fit to wage war and the other fit to give birth, but both fit to dance with head and feet.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Probability but no truth, facility but no freedom--it is owing to these two fruits that the tree of knowledge cannot be confused with the tree of life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A soul which knows that it is loved, but does not itself love, betrays its sediment: its dregs come up.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In compassionate men, severity is a virtue.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The followers of a great man often put their eyes out, so that they may be the better able to sing his praise.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The sensible author writes for no other posterity than his own--that is, for his age--so as to be able even then to take pleasurein himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When the gratitude that many owe to one discards all modesty, then there is fame.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The best friend will probably acquire the best wife, because a good marriage is founded on the talent for friendship.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The beautiful exists just as little as the true. In every case it is a question of the conditions of preservation of a certain type of man: thus the herd-man will experience the value feeling of the true in different things than will the overman.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Nothing in life possesses value except the degree of power--assuming that life itself is the will to power.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We grow hostile to many an artist or writer, not because we finally come to see he has deceived us, but because he thought no subtler means were required to ensnare us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Just as soon as we notice that someone has to force himself to pay attention when dealing and talking with us, we have a valid demonstration that he does not love us or that he does not love us anymore.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When a man is in love he endures more than at other times he submits to everything.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every word has its fragrance: there is a harmony and a disharmony of fragrances, and hence of words.
Friedrich Nietzsche
