More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
How did reason come into the world? As is fitting, in an irrational manner, by accident. One will have to guess at it as at a riddle.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is only possible through the fact that sympathy for the general life and suffering of mankind is very weakly developed in the individual.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Truth will have no gods before it.- The belief in truth begins with the doubt of all truths in which one has previously believed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Unpleasant, even dangerous, qualities can be found in every nation and every individual: it is cruel to demand that the Jew be an exception. In him, these qualities may even be dangerous and revolting to an unusual degree and perhaps the young stock-exchange Jew is altogether the most disgusting invention of mankind.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is always consoling to think of suicide: in that way one gets through many a bad night.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I listened for the echo, and I heard only praise —
Friedrich Nietzsche
Illness is a clumsy attempt to arrive at health: we must come to nature's aid with intellect.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sometimes in our relationship to another human being the proper balance of friendship is restored when we put a few grains of impropriety onto our own side of the scale.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Suspicious.- To admit a belief merely because it is a custom - but that means to be dishonest, cowardly, lazy! - And so could dishonesty, cowardice and laziness be the preconditions for morality?
Friedrich Nietzsche
For as long as they praise you, never forget that it is not yet your own path that you walk, but another person's.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The perfect woman is a higher type of humanity than the perfect man, and also something much rarer. The natural history of animals furnishes grounds in support of this theory.
Friedrich Nietzsche
An attack on the roots of passion means an attack on the roots of life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Inaction, letting be, neither creating nor destroying--that is my evil. And also the knower as one without desire.
Friedrich Nietzsche
As refined fare serves a hungry man as well as and no better than coarser food, the more pretentious artist will not dream of inviting the hungry man to his meal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The idealist is incorrigible: if he is thrown out of his heaven he makes an ideal of his hell.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Happiness is the feeling that power increases - that resistance is being overcome.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A high civilization is a pyramid: it can stand only on a broad base its primary prerequisite is a strong and soundly consolidated mediocrity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People who, out of an inborn moderation, leave every glass standing only half-emptied refuse to admit that everything in the world has its sediments and dregs.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Be careful when you cast out your demons that you don’t throw away the best of yourself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Robinson had a servant even better than Friday: His name was Crusoe.
Friedrich Nietzsche
