More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Science offends the modesty of all real women. It makes them feel as though it were an attempt to peek under their skin--or, worseyet, under their dress and ornamentation!
Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him who is ashamed when the dice fall in his favour, and who then asketh: Am I a dishonest player? - for he is willing to succumb.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whatever we think about and question a lot becomes questionable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every tradition grows continually more venerable, and the more remote its origins, the more this is lost sight of. The veneration paid the tradition accumulates from generation to generation, until it at last becomes holy and excites awe.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How difficult it is to live when one feels that the judgment of many millenniums is around one and against one.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I too have been in the underworld, as was Odysseus, and I will often be there again not only sheep have I sacrificed so as to beable to speak with a few dead souls, but neither have I spared my own blood as well.
Friedrich Nietzsche
By losing your goal, You have lost your way.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We possess art lest we perish of the truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The earth is like the breasts of a woman: useful as well as pleasing.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One is punished best for one's virtues.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We fear our neighbor's hostile mood because we are afraid that this mood will lead him to penetrate our secrets.
Friedrich Nietzsche
This tremendous event is still on its way, still wandering it has not yet reached the ears of men. Lightning and thunder require time the light on the stars requires time deeds though done, still require time to be seen and heard. This deed is still more distant from them than the most distant stars - and yet they have done it themselves.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Words are but symbols for the relations of things to one another and to us nowhere do they touch upon absolute truth... Through words and concepts we shall never reach beyond the wall off relations, to some sort of fabulous primal ground of things.
Friedrich Nietzsche
But not to perish from internal distress and doubt when one inflicts great suffering and hears the cry of suffering : that is great, that belongs to greatness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One loves ultimately one's desires, not the thing desired.
Friedrich Nietzsche
no one talks more passionately about his rights than he who in the depths of his soul doubts whether he has any
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are the terrible ones who carry about in themselves the beast of prey, and have no choice except lusts or self-laceration. And even their lusts are self-laceration.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The thirst for equality can express itself either as a desire to draw everyone down to one's level, or to raise oneself and everyone else up.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Supposing truth is a woman -- what then?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every man is a creative cause of what happens, a primum mobile with an original movement.
Friedrich Nietzsche
