More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Our shortcomings are the eyes with which we see the ideal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Indeed, what forces us at all to suppose that there is an essential opposition of 'true' and 'false'? Is it not sufficient to assume degrees of apparentness and, as it were, lighter and darker shadows and shades of appearance- different 'values', to use the language of painters?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man.
Friedrich Nietzsche
This is the hardest of all: to close the open hand out of love, and keep modest as a giver.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We are in the greatest danger of being run over when we have just gotten out of the way of a carriage.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How did reason come into the world? As is fitting, in an irrational manner, by accident. One will have to guess at it as at a riddle.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The man who sees little always sees less than there is to see the man who hears badly always hears something more than there is to hear.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In our interactions with people, a benevolent hypocrisy is frequently required--acting as though we do not see through the motivesof their actions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I understand by 'freedom of spirit' something quite definite - the unconditional will to say No, where it is dangerous to say No.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What was a lie in the father becomes a conviction in the son.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever deliberately attempts to insure confidentiality with another person is usually in doubt as to whether he inspires that person's confidence in him. One who is sure that he inspires confidence attaches little importance to confidentiality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is the truth, but a lie agreed upon.
Friedrich Nietzsche
That which intoxicates, the sensually ecstatic, the sudden surprise, the urge to be profoundly stirred at any price -- dreadful tendencies!
Friedrich Nietzsche
At times one remains faithful to a cause only because its opponents do not cease to be insipid.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The gilded sheath of pity sometimes covers the dagger of envy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Ye shall only have foes to be hated but not foes to be despised: ye must be proud of your foes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every church is a stone on the grave of a god-man: it does not want him to rise up again under any circumstances.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The 'kingdom of God' is not something one waits for it has no yesterday or tomorrow, it does not come 'in a thousand years' it is an experience within a heart it is everywhere, it is nowhere.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All great men are play actors of their own ideal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For some natures, changing their opinions is just as much a requirement of cleanliness as changing their clothes: for others, however, it is merely a requirement of vanity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
