More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
What is evil?-Whatever springs from weakness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Once the decision has been made, close your ear even to the best counter argument: sign of a strong character. Thus an occasional will to stupidity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What does not destroy me, makes me stronger.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Life is fountain of joy but where the rabble also gather to drink, all wells are poisoned.
Friedrich Nietzsche
As an artist one has no home in Europe except in Paris.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A lack of the historical sense is the hereditary fault of all philosophers.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever is related to me in the height of his aspirations will experience veritable ecstasies of learning for I come from heights that no bird ever reached in its flight, I know abysses into which no foot ever strayed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We ought to face our destiny with courage.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Beauty is for the artist something outside all orders of rank, because in beauty opposites are tamed the highest sign of power, namely power over opposites moreover, without tension: - that violence is no longer needed: that everything follows, obeys, so easily and so pleasantly - that is what delights the artist's WILL TO POWER.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The poison by which the weaker nature is destroyed is strengthening to the strong individual and he does not call it poison.
Friedrich Nietzsche
So long as men praise you, you can only be sure that you are not yet on your own true path but on someone else's.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Faith makes blessed. Consequently it lies.
Friedrich Nietzsche
An artist chooses his subjects: that is the way he praises.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In a certain state it is indecent to live longer.
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
Enduring habits I hate.... Yes, at the very bottom of my soul I feel grateful to all my misery and bouts of sickness and everything about me that is imperfect, because this sort of thing leaves me with a hundred backdoors through which I can escape from enduring habits.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To think historically is almost the same thing now as if in all ages history had been made according to theory.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People who comprehend a thing to its very depths rarely stay faithful to it forever. For they have brought its depths into the light of day: and in the depths there is always much that is unpleasant to see.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Assuming that rapture is nature's play with man, the Dionysian artist's creative activity is the play with rapture.
Friedrich Nietzsche
That which an age considers evil is usually an unseasonable echo of what was formerly considered good - the atavism of an old ideal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
