More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
O, what nowadays does science not conceal! How much, at least, it is meant to conceal!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Stupid as a man, say the women: cowardly as a woman, say the men. Stupidity in a woman is unwomanly.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who possesseth little is so much the less possessed. Blessed be moderate poverty!
Friedrich Nietzsche
I welcome all the signs indicating that a more manly and warlike age is commencing, which will, above all, bring heroism again into honour!
Friedrich Nietzsche
I was in darkness, but I took three steps and found myself in paradise. The first step was a good thought, the second, a good word and the third, a good deed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The empty, the one, the unmoved, the full, satiation, wanting nothing--that would be my evil: in short, dreamless sleep.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The one conclusive argument that has at all times discouraged people from drinking a poison is not that it kills but rather that it tastes bad.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is difficult to preach, this morality of mediocrity! It may never admit what it is and what it wants! It must speak about restraint and worth and duty and love of one's neighbor.
Friedrich Nietzsche
That which does not kill us makes us stronger.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Love matches, so called, have illusion for their father and need for their mother.
Friedrich Nietzsche
This is the hardest of all: to close the open hand out of love, and keep modest as a giver.
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
The sensible author writes for no other posterity than his own--that is, for his age--so as to be able even then to take pleasurein himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Art furnishes us with eyes and hands and above all the good conscience to be able to turn ourselves into such a phenomenon.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We should not talk about our friends: otherwise we will talk away the feeling of friendship.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What verse is for the poet, dialectical thinking is for the philosopher. He grasps for it in order to get hold of his own enchantment, in order to perpetuate it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To be ashamed of one's immorality: that is a step on the staircase at whose end one is also ashamed of one's morality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In the end we are always rewarded for our good will, our patience, fair-mindedness, and gentleness with what is strange.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You implanted your highest goal into the heart of those passions: then they became your virtues and joys.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We criticize a thinker more acutely when he advances a proposition that is disagreeable to us and yet it would be more reasonableto do so when his proposition is agreeable to us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
