More quotes by 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
I understand by 'freedom of spirit' something quite definite - the unconditional will to say No, where it is dangerous to say No.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I am afraid that old women are more skeptical in their most secret heart of hearts than any man: they believe in the superficiality of existence as in its essence, and all virtue and profundity is to them merely a veil over this truth, a most welcome veil over a pudendum--and so a matter of decency and modesty, and nothing else.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Worldly Wisdom Do not stay in the field! Nor climb out of sight. The best view of the world Is from a medium height.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When we are tired, we are attacked by ideas we conquered long ago.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Anti-theses.- The most senile thing ever thought about man is contained in the celebrated saying 'the ego is always hateful' the most childish is the even more celebrated 'love thy neighbor as thyself'. - In the former, knowledge of human nature has ceased, in the latter it has not yet even begun.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People who comprehend a thing to its very depths rarely stay faithful to it forever. For they have brought its depths into the light of day: and in the depths there is always much that is unpleasant to see.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Youth is an unpleasant period for then it is not possible or not prudent to be productive in any sense whatsoever.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The arrogance that accompanies merit offends us even more than the arrogance of people who are lacking in merit: since merit itself offends us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The great epochs of our life come when we gain the courage to rechristen our evil as what is best in us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In true love it is the soul that envelops the body.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Each word of Heraclitus expresses the pride and the majesty of truth, but of truth grasped in intuitions rather than attained by the rope ladder of logic.
Friedrich Nietzsche
At the beginning of a marriage ask yourself whether this woman will be interesting to talk to from now until old age. Everything else in marriage is transitory: most of the time is spent in conversation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When we have a great goal we are superior even to justice, not merely to our deeds and our judges.
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
How I understand the philosopher - as a terrible explosive, endangering everthing... my concept of the philosopher is worlds removed from any concept that would include even a Kant, not to speak of academic ruminants and other professors of philosophy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The consequences of our actions take hold of us, quite indifferent to our claim that meanwhile we have 'improved.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Convictions are more dangerous foes of truth than lies.
Friedrich Nietzsche
At times one remains faithful to a cause only because its opponents do not cease to be insipid.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Both classically- and romantically-minded spirits-inasmuch as these two species always exist-occupy themselves with a vision of the future: but the former do so out of a strength of their age, the latter out of its weakness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
