More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
It is the privilege of greatness to confer intense happiness with insignificant gifts.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Books for general reading always smell bad the odor of common people hangs around them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Master-morality and Slave-morality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Fear is the mother of morality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
War has always been the grand sagacity of every spirit which has grown too inward and too profound its curative power lies even in the wounds one receives.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him who liveth in order to know, and seeketh to know in order that the Superman may hereafter live. Thus seeketh he his own down-going.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When an idea is just rising on the horizon, the soul's temperature with respect to it is usually very cold. Only gradually does the idea develop its warmth, and it is hottest (which is to say, exerting its greatest influence) when belief in the idea is already once again in decline.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When horror is associated with what is harmful, evil results, when disgust does, badness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Be careful who you choose as your enemy because that's who you become most like.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever has overthrown an existing law of custom has always first been accounted a bad man: but when, as did happen, the law could not afterwards be reinstated and this fact was accepted, the predicate gradually changed - history treats almost exclusively of these bad men who subsequently became good men!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The moral earth, too, is round! The moral earth, too, has its antipodes! The antipodes, too, have their right to exist! There is still another world to be discovered--and more than one! Set sail, you philosophers!
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is obvious that all sense has gone out of modern marriage which is, however, no objection to marriage but to modernity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What good is all this free-thinking, modernity, and turncoat flexibility if at some gut level you are still a Christian, a Catholic, and even a priest!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Against war one might say that it makes the victor stupid and the vanquished malicious. In its favor, that in producing these two effects it barbarizes, and so makes the combatants more natural. For culture it is a sleep or a wintertime, and man emerges from it stronger for good and for evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is our taste that decides against Christianity now, no longer our reasons.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Not their love of humanity, but the impotence of their love, prevents the Christians of today - burning us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Lust and self-mutilation are closely related impulses. There are also self-mutilators among knowers: they do not want to be creators under any circumstances.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Life without music is only error, exhaustion, exile... Indeed, there is nothing that concerns me more than the fate of music.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Are you genuine? Or just an actor? A representative? Or what it is that is represented?-In the end, you might merely be someone mimicking an actor ... Second question of conscience.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him who justifieth the future ones, and redeemeth the past ones: for he is willing to succumb through the present ones.
Friedrich Nietzsche
