Quote

Then is what you see through this window onto the world so lovely that you have no desire whatsoever to look out through any other window, and that you even make an attempt to prevent others from doing so?

Image
Just as soon as we notice that someone has to force himself to pay attention when dealing and talking with us, we have a valid demonstration that he does not love us or that he does not love us anymore.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
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
Image
The earth is like the breasts of a woman: useful as well as pleasing.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
One loves ultimately one's desires, not the thing desired.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Ten truths must you find during the day otherwise will you seek truth during the night, and your soul will have been hungry.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Two great European narcotics, alcohol and Christianity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
All I need is a sheet of paper and something to write with, and then I can turn the world upside down.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
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
Image
It is an end with priests and gods, if man becomes scientific. Moral: science is the thing forbidden in itself - it alone is forbidden. Science is the first sin, the germ of all sin, original sin. This alones is mortality: Thou shalt not know.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
The strongest have their moments of fatigue.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Rejoicing in our joy, not suffering over our suffering, makes someone a friend.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
This is one of the stout-hearted old warriors: he is angry with civilization because he supposes that its aim is to make all goodthings--honors, treasures, beautiful women--accessible even to cowards.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
Without meaning, without substance, without aim: a mere 'public opinion'.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
In Christianity neither morality nor religion come into contact with reality at any point.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
We grow hostile to many an artist or writer, not because we finally come to see he has deceived us, but because he thought no subtler means were required to ensnare us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
The man who does not wish to belong to the mass needs only to cease taking himself easily let him follow his conscience, which calls to him: Be your self! All you are now doing, thinking, desiring, is not you yourself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
The patient. The pine tree seems to listen, the fir tree to wait: and both without impatience: - they give no thought to the little people beneath them devoured by their impatience and their curiosity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
The really royal calling of the philosopher (as expressed by Alcuin the Anglo-Saxon): To correct what is wrong, and strengthen the right, and raise what is holy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
The strength required for the vision of the most powerful reality is not only compatible with the most powerful strength for action, for monstrous action, for crime - it even presupposes it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
To demand of strength that it should not express itself as strength, that it should not be a desire to overcome, a desire to throw down, a desire to become master, a thirst for enemies and resistances and triumphs, is just as absurd as to demand of weakness that it should express itself as strength.
Friedrich Nietzsche
