More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
The best author will be the one who is ashamed to become a writer.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is certainly not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable it is precisely thereby that it attracts the more subtle minds. It seems that the hundred-times-refuted theory of the free will owes its persistence to this charm alone some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Liberalism is the transformation of mankind into cattle.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you know the why, you can live any how.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Who is better, they who promote truth over happiness, or happiness over truth?
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 have no organ at all for knowledge, for truth: we know (or believe or imagine) precisely as much as may be useful in the interest of the human herd, the species: and even what is here called usefulness is in the end only a belief, something imagined and perhaps precisely that most fatal piece of stupidity by which we shall one day perish.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sit as little as possible. Give no credence to any thought that was not born outdoors while moving about freely.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Silence is worse all truths that are kept silent become poisonous.
Friedrich Nietzsche
God created woman. And boredom did indeed cease from that moment-but many other things ceased as well!
Friedrich Nietzsche
'He who seeks may easily get lost himself. It is a crime to go apart and be alone.' Thus speaks the herd.
Friedrich Nietzsche
At bottom every man knows well enough that he is a unique being, only once on this earth and by no extraordinary chance will such a marvelously picturesque piece of diversity in unity as he is, ever be put together a second time.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The anarchist and the Christian have a common origin.
Friedrich Nietzsche
From passions grow opinions intellectual laziness lets these harden into convictions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When you look into an abyss, the abyss also looks into you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Without forgetting it is quite impossible to live at all.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is no pre-established harmony between the furtherance of truth and the well-being of mankind.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There did he sit shrivelled in his chimney corner, fretting on account of his weak legs, world weary, will weary, and one day he suffocated through his excessive pity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People are always angry at anyone who chooses very individual standards for his life because of the extraordinary treatment which that man grants to himself, they feel degraded, like ordinary beings.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Just as soon as we notice that someone has to force himself to pay attention when dealing and talking with us, we have a valid demonstration that he does not love us or that he does not love us anymore.
Friedrich Nietzsche
