More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
One's own self is well hidden from one's own self of all mines of treasure, one's own is the last to be dug up.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is always some madness in love.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Compassion for the friend should conceal itself under a hard shell.

It is not when truth is dirty, but when it is shallow, that the lover of knowledge is reluctant to step into its waters.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We hear only those questions for which we are in a position to find answers.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Towards gnats and fleas we should show no pity. We would do right to hang petty thieves, petty calumniators, and slanderers.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Even today a crude sort of persecution is all that is required to create an honorable name for any sect, no matter how indifferent in itself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It quite often happens that the old man is subject to the delusion of a great moral renewal and rebirth, and from this experience he passes judgments on the work and course of his life, as if he had only now become clear-sighted and yet the inspiration behind this feeling of well-being and these confident judgements is not wisdom, but weariness .
Friedrich Nietzsche
Some men are born posthumously.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Invisible threads are the strongest ties.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Oh great star! What would your happiness be if you did not have us to shine for?
Friedrich Nietzsche
What do we have in common with the rosebud, which trembles because a drop of dew lies on its body?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Two great European narcotics, alcohol and Christianity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Perhaps man will rise ever higher as soon as he ceases to flow out into a god.
Friedrich Nietzsche
An artist chooses his subjects: that is the way he praises.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is sense in hoping for recognition in a distant future only when we take it for granted that mankind will remain essentially unchanged, and that whatever is great is not for one age only but will be looked upon as great for all time.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is our needs that interpret the world our drives and their For and Against. Every drive is a kind of lust to rule each one has its perspective that it would like to compel all other drives to accept as a norm.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A man should not play the coward to his deeds. He should not repudiate them once he has performed them. Pangs of conscience are indecent.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All idealism is falsehood in the face of necessity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
