And if a man goes through fire for his doctrine - what does that prove? Verily, it is more if your own doctrine comes out of your own fire.

More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Humility has the toughest hide.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A living being seeks, above all, to discharge its strength. Life is will to power.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Women want to serve, and this is where their happiness lies: but the free spirit does not want to be served, and this is where hishappiness lies.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whatever does not kill me makes me stronger.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Assuming that he believes at all, the everyday Christian is a pitiful figure, a man who really cannot count up to three, and who besides, precisely because of his mental incompetence, would not deserve such a punishment as Christianity promises him.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I know no other way to associate with great tasks than as play: as a sign of greatness, this is an essential presupposition.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Madness is not a consequence of uncertainty but of certainty.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is always some madness in love.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whatever the State saith is a lie whatever it hath is a theft: all is counterfeit in it, the gnawing, sanguinary, insatiate monster.
Friedrich Nietzsche
That lies should be necessary to life is part and parcel of the terrible and questionable character of existence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When an idea is just rising on the horizon, the soul's temperature with respect to it is usually very cold. Only gradually does the idea develop its warmth, and it is hottest (which is to say, exerting its greatest influence) when belief in the idea is already once again in decline.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is happening to me happens to all fruits that grow ripe. It is the honey in my veins that makes my blood thicker, and my soul quieter.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If all alms were given only from pity, all beggars would have starved long ago.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is not in how one soul approaches another but in how it withdraws that I knowr its affinity and solidarity with the other.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is only those who know how to feel that this is not good who devise improvements.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Egoism is the very essence of a noble soul.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Christianity has the rancor of the sick at its very core-the instinct against the healthy, against health. Everything that is well-constructed, proud, gallant and, above all, beautiful gives offense to its ears and eyes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is something laughable about the sight of authors who enjoy the rustling folds of long and involved sentences: they are trying to cover up their feet.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If a man wishes to rid himself of a feeling of unbearable oppression, he may have to take hashish.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All that philosophers have handled for millennia has been conceptual mummies nothing actual has ever escaped from their hands alive.
Friedrich Nietzsche
