More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
And so while dreams are the individual man's play with reality, the sculptor's art is (in a broader sense) the play with dreams.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Faith makes blessed. Consequently it lies.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In order to be somebody you have to hold even your shadow in high regard.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The form of a work of art, which gives speech to their thoughts and is, therefore, their mode of talking, is always somewhat uncertain, like all kinds of speech.
Friedrich Nietzsche
All parties attempt to represent important things that have developed outside themselves as unimportant, and where they fail in this they assail those things all the more bitterly the more admirable they are.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Become who you are. Make what only you can make.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Again and again I am brought up against it, and again and again I resist it: I don't want to believe it, even though it is almost palpable: the vast majority lack an intellectual conscience indeed, it often seems to me that to demand such a thing is to be in the most populous cities as solitary as in the desert.
Friedrich Nietzsche
History is nothing more than the belief in the senses, the belief in falsehood.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We possess art lest we perish of the truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The man who meets with a failure attributes this failure rather to the ill will of another than to fate.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I love him who is ashamed when the dice fall in his favour, and who then asketh: Am I a dishonest player? - for he is willing to succumb.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The snake that cannot shed its skin perishes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Wisdom sets bounds even to knowledge.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Above all, there is no exception to this rule: that the idea of political superiority always resolves itself into the idea of psychological superiority.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever has character also has his typical experience, which returns over and over again.
Friedrich Nietzsche
That is an artist as I would have an artist be, modest in his needs: he really wants only two things, his bread and his art--panemet Circen.
Friedrich Nietzsche
For what purpose humanity is there should not even concern us: why you are here, that you should ask yourself: and if you have no ready answer, then set for yourself goals, high and noble goals, and perish in pursuit of them!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Certitude drives people mad.
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who climbeth on the highest mountains, laugheth at all tragic plays and tragic realities.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We fear our neighbor's hostile mood because we are afraid that this mood will lead him to penetrate our secrets.
Friedrich Nietzsche
