You lack the courage to be consumed in flames and to become ashes: so you will never become new, and never young again!

More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
When we have to change our mind about a person, we hold the inconvenience he causes us very much against him.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All philosophy is a form of confession.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I know my fate. One day my name will be associated with the memory of something tremendous — a crisis without equal on earth, the most profound collision of conscience, a decision that was conjured up against everything that had been believed, demanded, hallowed so far. I am no man, I am dynamite.
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
A little poison now and then: that makes for pleasant dreams. And a lot of poison at the end, for a pleasant death.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you are too weak to give yourselves your own law, then a tyrant shall lay his yoke upon you and say: Obey! Clench your teeth and obey! And all good and evil shall be drowned in obedience to him.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is it that endowed things with meaning, value, significance? The creating heart, which desired, and, out of its desire, created. It created joy and woe. It wanted to satiate itself with woe. We must take all the suffering that has been endured by men and animals upon ourselves and affirm it, and possess a goal in which it acquires reason.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If ye would go up high, then use your own legs! Do not get yourselves carried aloft do not seat yourselves on other people's backs and heads!
Friedrich Nietzsche
This is the fundamental idea of culture, insofar as it sets but one task for each of us: to further the production of the philosopher, of the artist, and of the saint within us and outside us, and thereby to work at the consummation of nature.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are more idols than realities in the world: that is my evil eye for this world, which is also my evil ear.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The radical hostility, the deadly hostility against sensuality, is always a symptom to reflect on: it entitles us to suppositions concerning the total state of one who is excessive in this manner.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When I contemplated purpose I also contemplated chance and foolishness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Body am I entirely, and nothing else and soul is only a word for something about the body.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The beautiful exists just as little as the true. In every case it is a question of the conditions of preservation of a certain type of man: thus the herd-man will experience the value feeling of the true in different things than will the overman.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It was Christianity, with its heartfelt resentment against life, that first made something unclean of sexuality: it threw filth on the origin, on the essential fact of our life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Perhaps I know best why it is man alone who laughs he alone suffers so deeply that he had to invent laughter.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The most unambiguous sign that a person holds men in low esteem is this, that he either acknowledges them merely as means to his ends or does not acknowledge them at all.
Friedrich Nietzsche
But it is the same with man as with the tree. The more he seeketh to rise into the height and light, the more vigorously do his roots struggle earthward, downward, into the dark and deep — into the evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
From whatever you wish to know and measure you must take your leave, at least for a time. Only when you have left the town can yousee how high its towers rise above the houses.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who despises himself esteems himself as a self-despiser.
Friedrich Nietzsche
