In being wildly natural we recover best from being unnatural, from being spiritual.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
My conception of freedom. — The value of a thing sometimes does not lie in that which one attains by it, but in what one pays for it — what it costs us. Liberal institutions cease to be liberal as soon as they are attained: later on, there are no worse and no more thorough injurers of freedom than liberal institutions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The moment Germany rises as a great power, France gains a new importance as a cultural power.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Become who you are. Make what only you can make.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher esteem those who think alike than those who think differently.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The visionary lies to himself, the liar only to others.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is inhuman to bless where one is cursed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Everyone who enjoys supposes that the tree was concerned with the fruit, but it was really concerned with the seed. -In this lies the difference between all those who create and those who enjoy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What do you believe in?--In this, that the weights of all things must be determined anew.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where does one not find that bland degeneration which beer produces in the spirit!
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is regrettable that a Dostoyevsky did not live near this most interesting of all decadents (Jesus Christ) - I mean someone who would have known how to sense the very stirring charm of such a mixture of the sublime, the sickly, and the childlike.
Friedrich Nietzsche
