More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche
No artist will tolerate the world for one second as it is.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Robinson had a servant even better than Friday: His name was Crusoe.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Error has made animals into men is truth in a position to make men into animals again?

Friedrich Nietzsche
I climb upon the highest mountains, laughing at all tragedies - whether real or imaginary.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I notice that Autumn is more the season of the soul than of nature.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Love matches, so called, have illusion for their father and need for their mother.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Companions the creator seeks, not corpses, not herds and believers. Fellow creators the creator seeks -- those who write new values on new tablets. Companions the creator seeks, and fellow harvesters for everything about him is ripe for the harvest.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every talent must unfold itself in fighting.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The thought is merely a sign, as the word is merely a sign for the thought.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Away from God and gods did this will lure me: what would there be to create if gods existed?
Friedrich Nietzsche
The great works are produced in such an ecstasy of love that they must always be unworthy of it, however great their worth otherwise.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Belief in truth begins with doubting all that has hitherto been believed to be true.
Friedrich Nietzsche
