Lust and self-mutilation are closely related impulses. There are also self-mutilators among knowers: they do not want to be creators under any circumstances.

More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
The end of a melody is not its goal but nonetheless, if the melody had not reached its end it would not have reached its goal either. A parable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To the mean all becomes mean.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I do not know what the spirit of a philosopher could more wish to be than a good dancer. For the dance is his ideal, also his fine art, finally also the only kind of piety he knows, his 'divine service.'
Friedrich Nietzsche
The destiny of the human race is to widen the gap separating it from the lower races of animals. Any code of morality which retains its permanence and authority after the conditions of existence which gave rise to it have changed, works against this upward progress of man.
Friedrich Nietzsche
And it is the great noon when man stands at the midpoint of his course between beast and superman and celebrates his way to the evening as his highest hope: for it is the way to a new morning.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How do you expect to learn to dance when you have not even learned to walk! And above the dancer is still the flyer and his bliss.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every talent must unfold itself in fighting.
Friedrich Nietzsche
As an artist one has no home in Europe except in Paris.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Do you call yourself Free? It is your ruling thought that I would hear, and not that you have escaped from a yoke.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How far is truth susceptible of embodiment? That is the question, that is the experiment.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For this remains as I have already pointed out the essential difference between the two religions of decadence : Buddhism promises nothing, but actually fulfils Christianity promises everything, but fulfils nothing.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Character is determined more by the lack of certain experiences than by those one has had.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is only when we have ceased to be the followers of our followers that we comprehend how meaningless followers are.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One should never know too precisely whom one has married
Friedrich Nietzsche
Those you cannot teach to fly, teach to fall faster.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Some die too young, some die too old the precept sounds strange, but die at the right age.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Those who are devoid of purpose will make the void their purpose.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What separates two people most profoundly is a different sense and degree of cleanliness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is the strongest cure?--Victory.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Certitude drives people mad.
Friedrich Nietzsche
