More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
The moral earth, too, is round! The moral earth, too, has its antipodes! The antipodes, too, have their right to exist! There is still another world to be discovered--and more than one! Set sail, you philosophers!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The woman and the genius do not work. Up to now, woman has been mankind's supreme luxury. In all those moments when we do our best, we do not work. Work is merely a means to these moments.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You shall become the person you are.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Many die too late, and some die too early. Yet strangers soundeth the precept: Die at the right time!
Friedrich Nietzsche
We must remain as close to the flowers, the grass, and the butterflies as the child is who is not yet so much taller than they are.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What was a lie in the father becomes a conviction in the son.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Natural death is independent of all reason and is really an irrational death, in which the pitiable substance of the shell determines how long the kernel is to exist or not in which, accordingly, the stunted, diseased and dull witted jailer is lord, and indicates the moment at which his distinguished prisoner shall die.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Digressions, objections, delight in mockery, carefree mistrust are signs of health.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The doer is merely a fiction added to the deed ? the deed is everything.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Courageous, unconcerned, scornful, coercive - so wisdom wisheth us she is a woman, and ever loveth only a warrior.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Sometimes in conversation the sound of our own voice distracts us and misleads us into making assertions that in no way express our true opinions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Women are considered deep - why? Because one can never discover any bottom to them. Women are not even shallow.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Supposing truth is a woman -- what then?
Friedrich Nietzsche
I would only believe in a god who could dance. And when I saw my devil I found him serious, thorough, profound, and solemn: it was the spirit of gravity—through him all things fall. Not by wrath does one kill but by laughter. Come, let us kill the spirit of gravity!
Friedrich Nietzsche
In praise there is more obtrusiveness than in blame.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Everything becomes and recurs eternally - escape is impossible!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The charm of the Platonic mode of thought ... consisted precisely in the resistance to the obvious evidence of the senses.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The worst readers are those who behave like plundering troops: they take away a few things they can use, dirty and confound the remainder, and revile the whole.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him who is of a free spirit and a free heart: thus is his head only the bowels of his heart his heart, however, causeth his down-going.
Friedrich Nietzsche
That which does not destroy, strengthens.
Friedrich Nietzsche
