More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
What does not destroy me, makes me stronger.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The end of a melody is not its goal but nonetheless, if the melody had not reached its end it would not have reached its goal either. A parable.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
The grand style arises when beauty wins a victory over the monstrous.
Friedrich Nietzsche

A philosophical mythology lies concealed in language, which breaks out again at every moment, no matter how cautious we may be.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The anarchist and the Christian have a common origin.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The wheel and the brake have different duties, but also one in common: to hurt one another.
