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
My wisdom has long accumulated like a cloud, it becomes stiller and darker. So does all wisdom which shall one day bear lightnings.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
He who does not need to lie is proud of not being a liar.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
What an age experiences as evil is usually an untimely reverberation echoing what was previously experienced as good--the atavismof an older ideal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The domestication (the culture) of man does not go deep--where it does go deep it at once becomes degeneration (type: the Christian). The 'savage' (or, in moral terms, the evil man) is a return to nature--and in a certain sense his recovery, his cure from 'culture'.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Convictions are more dangerous enemies of truth than lies.Courageous, untroubled, mocking and violent-that is what Wisdom wants us to be. Wisdom is a woman, and loves only a warrior.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Our shortcomings are the eyes with which we see the ideal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The saying, The Magyar is much too lazy to be bored, is worth thinking about. Only the most subtle and active animals are capable of boredom.--A theme for a great poet would be God's boredom on the seventh day of creation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What do I care about the purring of one who cannot love, like the cat?
Friedrich Nietzsche
