Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
And once you are awake, you shall remain awake eternally.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You implanted your highest goal into the heart of those passions: then they became your virtues and joys.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I am alone again and I want to be so alone with the pure sky and open sea.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The preponderance of pain over pleasure is the cause of our fictitious morality and religion.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We have to be careful that in throwing out the devil, we don't throw out the best part of ourselves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Vanity is the fear of appearing original: it is thus a lack of pride, but not necessarily a lack of originality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The parasites live where the great have little secret sores.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If all alms were given only from pity, all beggars would have starved long ago.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A little poison now and then: that makes for pleasant dreams. And a lot of poison at the end, for a pleasant death.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you look long enough into the void, the void begins to look back through you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is not when truth is dirty, but when it is shallow, that the lover of knowledge is reluctant to step into its waters.
Friedrich Nietzsche
