More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
At heart I am a warrior.
Friedrich Nietzsche
New ways I go, a new speech comes to me weary I grow, like all creators, of the old tongues. My spirit no longer wants to walk on worn soles.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thus do I want man and woman to be: the one fit to wage war and the other fit to give birth, but both fit to dance with head and feet.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who denies his own vanity usually possesses it in so brutal a form that he instinctively shuts his eyes to avoid the necessity of despising himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We believe that we know something about the things themselves when we speak of trees, colors, snow, and flowers and yet we possess nothing but metaphors for things - metaphors which correspond in no way to the original entities.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Pity is extolled as the virtue of prostitutes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One will rarely err if extreme actions be ascribed to vanity, ordinary actions to habit, and mean actions to fear.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sometimes it just takes stronger eyeglasses to cure those who are in love--and someone with the ability to imagine a face or a figure twenty years older might perhaps pass through life quite undisturbed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Never trust a thought that didn't come by walking.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Enjoyment and innocence are the most bashful things: both do not want to be sought.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We have to learn how to come out of unclean situations cleaner than we were, and even how to wash ourselves with dirty water whenwe need to.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is more wisdom in your body than in your deepest philosophy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One is honest about oneself either with a sense of shame or with vanity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No journey is too great, when one finds what one seeks.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every great love brings with it the cruel idea of killing the object of its love so that it may be removed once and for all from the wicked game of change: for love dreads change even more than annihilation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It was Christianity, with its heartfelt resentment against life, that first made something unclean of sexuality: it threw filth on the origin, on the essential fact of our life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Too long, the earth has been a madhouse!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Praise is more obtrusive than a reproach.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Christian church is an encyclopedia of prehistoric cults.
