More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Today as always, men fall into two groups: slaves and free men. Whoever does not have two-thirds of his day for himself, is a slave, whatever he may be: a statesman, a businessman, an official, or a scholar.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There will be but few people who, when at a loss for topics of conversation, will not reveal the more secret affairs of their friends.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The coward does not know what it means to be alone: an enemy is always standing behind his chair.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The good-they cannot create they are always the beginning of the end.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A light has dawned for me: I need companions, living ones, not dead companions and corpses which I carry with me wherever I wish. But I need living companions who follow me because they want to follow themselves- and who want to go where I want to go.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Mathematics is merely the means to a general and ultimate knowledge of man.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How did reason come into the world? As is fitting, in an irrational manner, by accident. One will have to guess at it as at a riddle.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The lack of closeness among friends is a fault that cannot be reprimanded without becoming incurable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The sick are the greatest danger for the healthy it is not from the strongest that harm comes to the strong, but from the weakest.
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
I have forgotten my umbrella.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Faith means the will to avoid knowing what is true.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To use the same words is not a sufficient guarantee of understanding one must use the same words for the same genus of inward experience ultimately one must have one's experiences in common.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A man who possesses genius is insufferable unless he also possesses at least two other things: gratitude and cleanliness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In pain there is as much wisdom as in pleasure: like the latter it is one of the best self preservatives of a species.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I do not know what meaning classical studies could have for our time if they were not untimely that is to say, acting counter to our time and thereby acting on our time and, let us hope, for the benefit of a time to come.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Chastity is a virtue with some, but with many it is almost a vice.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I presume that you are compassionate: to be without pity means to be sick in body and spirit. But one should have spirit in abundance, so as to be permitted to be compassionate! For your pity is detrimental to you and to everyone.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man would sooner have the Void for his purpose than be void of Purpose.
Friedrich Nietzsche
i have never pondered over questions that are not questions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
