It is very noble hypocrisy not to talk of one's self.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Thus the man who is responsive to artistic stimuli reacts to the reality of dreams as does the philosopher to the reality of existence he observes closely, and he enjoys his observation: for it is out of these images that he interprets life, out of these processes that he trains himself for life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
An artist chooses his subjects: that is the way he praises.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
I devote myself to what I love the most, and for this very reason I hesitate to designate it with lofty words: I do not want to risk believing that it is a sublime compulsion, a law, which I obey: I love what I love the most too much to wish to appear to it as one compelled.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
I do not give alms I am not poor enough for that.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image

Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Necessity is an interpretation, not a fact.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
A change of values - that means, a change of the creators of values. He who has to be a creator always has to destroy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
When we are tired, we are attacked by ideas we conquered long ago.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Metaphysical world.- It is true, there could be a metaphysical world the absolute possibility of it is hardly to be disputed. We behold all things through the human head and cannot cut off this head while the question nonetheless remains what of the world would still be there if one had cut it off.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Man is the only animal that must be encouraged to live.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
My conception of freedom. — The value of a thing sometimes does not lie in that which one attains by it, but in what one pays for it — what it costs us. Liberal institutions cease to be liberal as soon as they are attained: later on, there are no worse and no more thorough injurers of freedom than liberal institutions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
From people who merely pray we must become people who bless.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
As soon as we climb higher than those who had at one time admired us, we appear to them as though we have sunken and fallen down:for, in any event, they had at one time supposed that they were with us (even if it were through us) on the heights.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
I love him who justifieth the future ones, and redeemeth the past ones: for he is willing to succumb through the present ones.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
One loves ultimately one's desires, not the thing desired.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
The living is merely a type of what is dead, and a very rare type.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
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
Image
The reasons for which 'this' world has been characterized as 'apparent' are the very reasons which indicate its reality any other kind of reality is absolutely indemonstrable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
