More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
What really raises one's indignation against suffering is not suffering intrinsically, but the senselessness of suffering
Friedrich Nietzsche
The most spiritual human beings, assuming they are the most courageous, also experience by far the most painful tragedies: but it is precisely for this reason that they honor life, because it brings against them its most formidable weapons.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Bad cooks - and the utter lack of reason in the kitchen - have delayed human development longest and impaired it most.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When we have a great goal we are superior even to justice, not merely to our deeds and our judges.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The great epochs of our life come when we gain the courage to rechristen our evil as what is best in us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Let old ones go. Dont be a memory-monger! Once you were young──now you are even younger.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him who maketh his virtue his inclination and destiny: thus, for the sake of his virtue, he is willing to live on, or live no more.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is no better soporific and sedative than skepticism.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is nothing we like to communicate to others as much as the seal of secrecy together with what lies under it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset that from now on I can't believe you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One can promise actions, but not feelings, for the latter are involuntary. He who promises to love forever or hate forever or be forever faithful to someone is promising something that is not in his power.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Are you one who looks on? or lends a hand? - or who looks away, sidles off?...Third question for the conscience.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who rejoices even at the stake triumphs not over pain but over the absence of pain where he had anticipated feeling it. A parable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every week we ought to have one hour for recieving letters, then go take a bath.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Remain true to the earth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Christians call it faith ... I call it the herd.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is my ambition to say in ten sentences what others say in a whole book.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The soul must have its chosen sewers to carry away its ordure. This function is performed by persons, relationships, professions, the fatherland, the world, or finally, for the really arrogant - I mean our modern pessimists - by the Good God himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Pity aims just as little at the pleasure of others as malice at the pain of others Per-Se.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Amor Fati – “Love Your Fate”, which is in fact your life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
