More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
And if a man goes through fire for his doctrine - what does that prove? Verily, it is more if your own doctrine comes out of your own fire.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who does not desire much more from things than knowledge of them easily makes peace with his soul.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The lack of closeness among friends is a fault that cannot be reprimanded without becoming incurable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Like tourists huffing and puffing to reach the peak we forget the view on the way up.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One is proud to worship when he cannot be an idol.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you buy the why, the how is infinitely bearable
Friedrich Nietzsche
Those who know that they are profound strive for clarity. Those who would like to seem profound to the crowd strive for obscurity. For the crowd believes that if it cannot see to the bottom of something it must be profound. It is so timid and dislikes going into the water.
Friedrich Nietzsche
[Heraclitus had] the highest form of pride [stemming] from a certainty of belief in the truth as grasped by himself alone. He brings this form, by its excessive development, into a sublime pathos by involuntary identification of himself with his truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If a woman possesses manly virtues, she is to be run away from and if she does not possess them, she runs away herself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To get into just those situations where sham virtues will not suffice, but rather where, as with the ropedancer on his rope, one either falls or stands--or gets down.
Friedrich Nietzsche
THE TEACHER AS A NECESSARY EVIL. Let us have as few people as possible between the productive minds and the hungry and recipient minds! The middlemen almost unconsciously adulterate the food which they supply. It is because of teachers that so little is learned, and that so badly.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Woman was God's second mistake.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who cannot obey himself will be commanded. That is the nature of living creatures.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Do I advise you to love the neighbor? I suggest rather to escape from the neighbor and to love those who are the farthest away from you. Higher than the love for the neighbor is the love for the man who is distant and has still to come.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Christian resolution to find the world ugly and bad has made the world ugly and bad.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The spiritualization of sensuality is called love: it is a great triumph over Christianity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
At the very moment when someone is beginning to take philosophy seriously, the whole world believes the opposite.
Friedrich Nietzsche
THE SLOW ARROW OF BEAUTY. The noblest kind of beauty is that which does not transport us suddenly, which does not make stormy and intoxicating impressions such a kind easily arouses disgust but that which slowly filters into our minds.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every god-man created his own god: and there is no worse enmity on earth than that between gods.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What good is all this free-thinking, modernity, and turncoat flexibility if at some gut level you are still a Christian, a Catholic, and even a priest!
Friedrich Nietzsche
