More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
He who humbles himself wants to be exalted.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In every age the wisest have passed the identical judgment on life: it is worthless.
Friedrich Nietzsche
God created woman. And boredom did indeed cease from that moment-but many other things ceased as well!
Friedrich Nietzsche
If God had wanted to become an object of love, he would first of all have had to forgo judging and justice : a judge, and even a gracious judge, is no object of love.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Original minds are not distinguished by being the first to see a new thing, but instead by seeing the old, familiar thing that is over-looked as something new.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I am affected, not because you have deceived me, but because I can no longer believe in you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The command 'become hard! ', the deep conviction that all creators are hard, is the really distinctive sign of a Dionysian nature.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When an idea is just rising on the horizon, the soul's temperature with respect to it is usually very cold. Only gradually does the idea develop its warmth, and it is hottest (which is to say, exerting its greatest influence) when belief in the idea is already once again in decline.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Although the most acute judges of the witches and even the witches themselves, were convinced of the guilt of witchery, the guilt nevertheless was non-existent. It is thus with all guilt.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Prejudice of the learned. - The learned judge correctly that people of all ages have believed they know what is good and evil, praise- and blameworthy. But it is a prejudice of the learned that we now know better than any other age.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The beast in us must be[78] wheedled: ethic is necessary, that we may not be torn to pieces.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We feign pity when we want to demonstrate our ascendancy over feelings of hostility: but usually in vain. Whenever we notice this,there is an accompanying surge in those hostile sensations.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I desire that your conjectures should not reach beyond your creative will. Could you create a god? Then do not speak to me of any gods.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I teach you the Overman. Man is something which shall be surpassed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The stronger becomes master of the weaker, in so far as the latter cannot assert its degree of independence here there is no mercy, no forbearance, even less a respect for laws.
Friedrich Nietzsche
This woman is beautiful and clever: but how much cleverer she would have become if she were not beautiful!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The patient. The pine tree seems to listen, the fir tree to wait: and both without impatience: - they give no thought to the little people beneath them devoured by their impatience and their curiosity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Either one does not dream, or one does so interestingly. One should learn to spend one's waking life in the same way: not at all, or interestingly.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every man who has declared that some other man is an ass or a scoundrel, gets angry when the other man conclusively shows that the assertion was erroneous.
Friedrich Nietzsche
