More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
What destroys a man more quickly than to work, think and feel without inner necessity, without any deep personal desire, without pleasure - as a mere automaton of duty?
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is the most sensual men who need to flee women and torment their bodies.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whom do I hate most among the rabble of today? The socialist rabble, the chandala apostles, who undermine the instinct, the pleasure, the worker's sense of satisfaction with his small existence-who make him envious, who teach him revenge. The source of wrong is never unequal rights but the claim of equal rights.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Everything that is profound loves the mask: the profoundest things have a hatred even of figure and likeness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The will to overcome an emotion, is ultimately only the will of another, or of several other, emotions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What? A great man? I only ever see the ape of his own ideal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Only with the ultimate knowledge of all things will man have come to know himself. For things are but the boundaries of man.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thoughts are the shadows of our feelings - always darker, emptier and simpler.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The lack of closeness among friends is a fault that cannot be reprimanded without becoming incurable.
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
Dancing in all its forms cannot be excluded from the curriculum of all noble education dancing with the feet, with ideas, with words, and, need I add that one must also be able to dance with the pen?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Hope, in its stronger forms, is a great deal more powerful stimulans to life than any sort of realized joy can ever be. Man must be sustained in suffering by a hope so high that no conflict with actuality can dash it - so high, indeed, that no fulfilment can satisfy it: a hope reaching out beyond this world.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Do I advise you to love the neighbor? I suggest rather to escape from the neighbor and to love those who are the farthest away from you. Higher than the love for the neighbor is the love for the man who is distant and has still to come.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Men have hitherto treated women like birds which have strayed down to them from the heights as something more delicate, more fragile, more savage, stranger, sweeter, soulful--but as something which has to be caged up so that it shall not fly away.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I despise mystics, they fancy themselves so deep, when they aren't even superficial.
Friedrich Nietzsche
My abyss speaks, I have turned my ultimate depth inside out into the light.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The English are the people of consummate cant.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We labour at our daily work more ardently and thoughtlessly than is necessary to sustain our life because it is even more necessary not to have leisure to stop and think. Haste is universal because everyone is in flight from himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Many a peacock hides his peacock tail from all eyes--and calls it his pride.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One must know how to conserve oneself- the best test of independence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
