More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
To go on vegetating in cowardly dependence on physicians and machinations, after the meaning of life, the right to life, has been lost, that ought to prompt a profound contempt in society.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Love matches, so called, have illusion for their father and need for their mother.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Christians call it faith ... I call it the herd.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How can a man know himself? He is a thing dark and veiled and if the hare has seven skins, man can slough off seventy times seven and still not be able to say: this is really you, this is no longer outer shell.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every philosophy is the philosophy of some stage of life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Human life is inexplicable, and still without meaning: a fool may decide its fate.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every man who has declared that some other man is an ass or a scoundrel, gets angry when the other man conclusively shows that the assertion was erroneous.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The coward does not know what it means to be alone: an enemy is always standing behind his chair.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The great wars of the present age are the effects of the study of history.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When a woman has scholarly inclinations there is usually something wrong with her sexuality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is only possible through the fact that sympathy for the general life and suffering of mankind is very weakly developed in the individual.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I teach you the Overman. Man is something which shall be surpassed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
love as a passion—it is our European specialty—must absolutely be of noble origin as is well known, its invention is due to the Provencal poet-cavaliers, those brilliant, ingenious men of the gai saber, to whom Europe owes so much, and almost owes itself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What then in the last resort are the truths of mankind? They are the irrefutable errors of mankind.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A beautiful woman seductively dressed will never catch cold no matter how low-cut her gown.
Friedrich Nietzsche
No shepherd and one herd! Everybody wants the same, everybody is the same: whoever feels different goes voluntarily into a madhouse.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Dreadful experiences raise the question whether he who experiences them, is not something dreadful also.
Friedrich Nietzsche
truths are illusions of which one has forgotten that they are illusions, metaphors that have become worn-out and deprived of their sensuous force, coins that have lost their imprint and are now no longer seen as coins but as metal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People buy their necessities in shops and have to pay dearly for them because they have to assist in paying for what is also on sale there but only rarely finds purchasers: the luxury and amusement goods. So it is that luxury continually imposes a tax on the simple people who have to do without it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If a man has character, he has also his typical experience, which always recurs.
Friedrich Nietzsche
