Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Where do your greatest dangers lie?--In pity.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
A few hours of mountain climbing make a blackguard and a saint two rather similar creatures.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whether in conversation we generally agree or disagree with others is largely a matter of habit: the one tendency makes as much sense as the other.
Friedrich Nietzsche
As far as Germany extends it ruins culture.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Principle of Christian love: it insists upon being well paid in the end.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Without the errors which lie in the assumption of morality, man would have remained an animal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One should part from life as Odysseus parted from Nausicaa-blessing it rather than in love with it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We only hear questions that we are able to answer.
Friedrich Nietzsche
