Friedrich Nietzsche
The greatest cure for love is still that time honoured medicine - love returned.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man and man's earth are unexhausted and undiscovered. Wake and listen! Verily, the earth shall yet be a source of recovery. Remain faithful to the earth, with the power of your virtue. Let your gift-giving love and your knowledge serve the meaning of the earth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Freedom of opinion is like health both are individual, and no good general conception can be set up of either of them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The child as a monument to the passion of two people the will to oneness in two.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
Ten times must you laugh during the day, and be cheerful otherwise your stomach, the father of affliction, will disturb you in the night.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The abdomen is the reason why man does not readily take himself to be a god.
Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche

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
The devotion of the greatest is to encounter risk and danger, and play dice for death.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Refinement of Shame. People are not ashamed to think something foul, but they are ashamed when they think these foul thoughts are attributed to them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Epicurus had rage and envy of Plato's superior style.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Christians call it faith ... I call it the herd.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If you know the why, you can live any how.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We only hear questions that we are able to answer.
Friedrich Nietzsche
