More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever knows he is deep tries to be clear, but whoever wants to seem deep to the crowd tries to be obscure. For the crowd supposes that anything it cannot see to the bottom must be deep: it is so timid and goes so unwillingly into the water.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The world itself is the will to power - and nothing else! And you yourself are the will to power - and nothing else!
Friedrich Nietzsche
In art the end does not sanctify the means: but sacred means employed here can sanctify the end.
Friedrich Nietzsche
However unchristian it may seem, I do not even bear any ill feeling towards myself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Never trust a thought that didn't come by walking.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The parasites live where the great have little secret sores.
Friedrich Nietzsche
This is the crux of the moral pessimists: if they really wanted to promote their neighbor's redemption, then they would have to resolve themselves to spoiling existence for him, and thus to being his misfortune out of pity, they would have to--become evil!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Behind a remarkable scholar we not infrequently find an average human being, and behind an average artist we often find a very remarkable human being.
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
Fear is the mother of morality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The great man fights the elements in his time that hinder his own greatness, in other words his own freedom and sincerity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Be careful when you fight the monsters, lest you become one.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How I understand the philosopher - as a terrible explosive, endangering everthing... my concept of the philosopher is worlds removed from any concept that would include even a Kant, not to speak of academic ruminants and other professors of philosophy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One is most dishonest to one's god: he is not allowed to sin.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Those with certain temperaments find no way to endure themselves except by striving towards going under.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Against boredom even gods struggle in vain.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Is it not better to fall into the hands of a murderer, than into the dreams of a lustful woman?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Was aus Liebe getan wird, geschieht immer jenseits von Gut und Böse. (What is done out of love always takes place beyond good and evil.)
Friedrich Nietzsche
Perhaps I know best why it is man alone who laughs he alone suffers so deeply that he had to invent laughter.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are more idols than realities in the world: that is my evil eye for this world, which is also my evil ear.
Friedrich Nietzsche
