More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
With one more talent one frequently stands with greater instability than with one less, as a table stands better on three legs than on four.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When I seek another word for 'music', I never find any other word than 'Venice'
Friedrich Nietzsche
There will be but few people who, when at a loss for topics of conversation, will not reveal the more secret affairs of their friends.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Learn to see - accustoming the eye to calm, to patience, to letting-things-come-to-it learning to defer judgment, to encircle and encompass the question on all sides.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The idealist is incorrigible: if he is thrown out of his heaven he makes an ideal of his hell.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A bad conscience is easier to cope with than a bad reputation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I have somehow something like influence ... In the Anti-Semitic Correspondence ... my name is mentioned in almost every issue. Zarathustra ... has charmed the anti-Semites there is a special anti-Semitic interpretation of it that made me laugh very much.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Our writing equipment takes part in forming our thoughts.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One can promise actions, but not feelings, for the latter are involuntary. He who promises to love forever or hate forever or be forever faithful to someone is promising something that is not in his power.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The ability to suffer is a small matter - weak women and even slaves can acheive virtuosity in that.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I enquire now as to the genesis of a philologist and assert the following: 1. A young man cannot possibly know what Greeks and Romans are. 2. He does not know whether he is suited for finding out about them.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Those who create are hard of heart.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Weariness that wants to reach the ultimate with one leap, with one fatal leap, a poor ignorant weariness that does not want to want any more: this created all gods and afterworlds.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I call Christianity the one great curse, the one great intrinsic depravity, and the one great instinct of revenge, for which no means are venomous enough, or secret, subterranean and small enough - I call it the one immortal blemish on the human race.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I devote myself to what I love the most, and for this very reason I hesitate to designate it with lofty words: I do not want to risk believing that it is a sublime compulsion, a law, which I obey: I love what I love the most too much to wish to appear to it as one compelled.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Robinson had a servant even better than Friday: His name was Crusoe.
Friedrich Nietzsche
You want to make him interested in you? Then pretend to be embarrassed in his presence-
Friedrich Nietzsche
On the heights it is warmer than people in the valley suppose, especially in winter. The thinker recognizes the full import of this simile.
Friedrich Nietzsche
This sign I give you: every people speaks its tongue of good and evil, which the neighbor does not understand. It has invented its own language of customs and rights.
Friedrich Nietzsche
And many such good inventions are there, that they are like woman's breasts: useful at the same time, and pleasant.
Friedrich Nietzsche
