More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
If we make sacrifices in doing good or in doing ill, it does not alter the ultimate value of our actions even if we stake our life in the cause, as martyrs do for the sake of our church : it is a sacrifice to our longing for power, or for the purpose of conserving our sense of power.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If there were gods, how could I endure not to be a god? Therefore there are no gods.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Once the decision has been made, close your ear even to the best counter argument: sign of a strong character. Thus an occasional will to stupidity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When the gratitude that many owe to one discards all modesty, then there is fame.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You must be born for your physician, otherwise you are bound to perish because of your physician.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The charm of the Platonic mode of thought ... consisted precisely in the resistance to the obvious evidence of the senses.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man must become better and more evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The greatest cure for love is still that time honoured medicine - love returned.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where one despises, one cannot wage war.
Friedrich Nietzsche
That grand drama in a hundred acts, which is reserved for the next two centuries of Europe-the most terrible, most questionable and perhaps also the most hopeful of all dramas.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Reason in language - oh, what an old deceptive female she is! I am afraid we are not rid of God because we still have faith in grammar.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The bad gains respect through imitation, the good loses it especially in art.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Alas! There cometh the time when man will no longer give birth to any star. Alas! There cometh the time of the most despicable man, who can no longer despise himself.
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
People live for the morrow, because the day-after-to-morrow is doubtful.
Friedrich Nietzsche
God is a gross answer, an indelicacy against us thinkers- at bottom merely a gross prohibition for us: you shall not think!
Friedrich Nietzsche
All religions bear traces of the fact that they arose during the intellectual immaturity of the human race - before it had learned the obligations to speak the truth. Not one of them makes it the duty of its god to be truthful and understandable in his communications.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The world is poor for him who has never been sick enough for this 'voluptuousness of hell
Friedrich Nietzsche
A bad conscience is easier to cope with than a bad reputation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is our needs that interpret the world our drives and their For and Against. Every drive is a kind of lust to rule each one has its perspective that it would like to compel all other drives to accept as a norm.
Friedrich Nietzsche
