More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
My conception of freedom. — The value of a thing sometimes does not lie in that which one attains by it, but in what one pays for it — what it costs us. Liberal institutions cease to be liberal as soon as they are attained: later on, there are no worse and no more thorough injurers of freedom than liberal institutions.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The beating of drums, which delights young writers who serve a party, sounds to him who does not belong to the party line like a rattling of chains, and excites sympathy rather than admiration.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Great things demand that we either remain silent about them or speak in a great manner: in a great manner, that is-cynically and with innocence.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Indeed, what forces us at all to suppose that there is an essential opposition of 'true' and 'false'? Is it not sufficient to assume degrees of apparentness and, as it were, lighter and darker shadows and shades of appearance- different 'values', to use the language of painters?
Friedrich Nietzsche
Art raises its head where creeds relax.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Those who are bent on revolutionizing society may be divided into those who seek something for themselves thereby and those who seek something for their children and grandchildren.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Man, a hybrid of plant and ghost.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Mastery has been achieved when one neither makes a mistake nor hesitates in the performance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A declaration of war on the masses by higher men is needed! ... Everything that makes soft and effeminate, that serves the end of the people or the feminine, works in favor of universal suffrage, i.e. the domination of the inferior men. But we should take reprisal and bring this whole affair to light and the bar of judgment.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Undeserved praise causes more pangs of conscience later than undeserved blame, but probably only for this reason, that our power of judgment are more completely exposed by being over praised than by being unjustly underestimated.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Experience, as a desire for experience, does not come off. We must not study ourselves while having an experience.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is the truth, but a lie agreed upon.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is done out of love always occurs beyond good and evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
you must be ready to burn yourself in your own flame how could you rise anew if you have not first become ashes?
Friedrich Nietzsche
He who has attained intellectual emancipation to any extent cannot, for a long time, regard himself otherwise than as a wanderer on the face of the earth and not even as a traveller towards a final goal, for there is no such thing.
Friedrich Nietzsche
People who have given us their complete confidence believe that they have a right to ours. The inference is false, a gift confers no rights.
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
Thinking evil is making evil.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There is more wisdom in your body than in your deepest philosophy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Error has made animals into men is truth in a position to make men into animals again?
Friedrich Nietzsche
