More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
What is bad? -Everything that arises from weakness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Art depends upon the inexactitude of sight.
Friedrich Nietzsche
O my brothers, am I then cruel? But I say: that which is falling should also be pushed!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The grand style arises when beauty wins a victory over the monstrous.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The apprentice and the master love the master in different ways.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Today I love myself as I love my god: who could charge me with a sin today? I know only sins against my god but who knows my god?
Friedrich Nietzsche
A woman may very well form a friendship with a man, but for this to endure, it must be assisted by a little physical antipathy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The demand to be loved is the greatest of all arrogant presumptions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One must not let oneself be misled: they say 'Judge not!' but they send to Hell everything that stands in their way.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We grow hostile to many an artist or writer, not because we finally come to see he has deceived us, but because he thought no subtler means were required to ensnare us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A friend whose hopes we cannot satisfy is a friend we would rather have as an enemy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The lack of closeness among friends is a fault that cannot be reprimanded without becoming incurable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
At the very moment when someone is beginning to take philosophy seriously, the whole world believes the opposite.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Enjoyment and innocence are the most bashful things: both do not want to be sought.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators the creator seeks -- those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters for everything about him is ripe for the harvest.
Friedrich Nietzsche
With one more talent one frequently stands with greater instability than with one less, as a table stands better on three legs than on four.
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 is the greatest thing ye can experience? It is the hour of great contempt. The hour in which even your happiness becometh loathsome unto you, and so also your reason and virtue.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To learn from our enemies is the best pathway to loving them: for it makes us grateful to them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The strongest knowledge (that of the total freedom of the human will) is nonetheless the poorest in successes: for it always has the strongest opponent, human vanity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
