More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
For as long as they praise you, never forget that it is not yet your own path that you walk, but another person's.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What then in the last resort are the truths of mankind? They are the irrefutable errors of mankind.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Words are but symbols for the relations of things to one another and to us nowhere do they touch upon absolute truth... Through words and concepts we shall never reach beyond the wall off relations, to some sort of fabulous primal ground of things.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The definition of morality: Morality is the idiosyncrasy of decadents having the hidden desire to revenge themselves upon life - and being successful.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The parasites live where the great have little secret sores.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Heavy, heavy-hearted people grow lighter and rise occasionally to their surface through precisely that which makes others heavier,through hatred and love.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Some die too young, some die too old the precept sounds strange, but die at the right age.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Such a man as instinctively feeds on pure ambrosia and leaves alone the indigestible in things.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Many brief follies--that is what you call love. And your marriage puts an end to many brief follies, with a single long stupidity.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Whoever, at any time, has undertaken to build a new heaven has found the strength for it in his own hell.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is not intelligible to me is not necessarily unintelligent
Friedrich Nietzsche
Socrates ... is the first philosopher of life [Lebensphilosoph], ... Thinking serves life, while among all previous philosophers life had served thought and knowledge. ... Thus Socratic philosophy is absolutely practical: it is hostile to all knowledge unconnected to ethical implications.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In magnanimity there is the same amount of egoism as in revenge, but egoism of a different quality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
In Russia there is an emigration of intelligence: émigrés cross the frontier in order to read and to write good books. But in doing so they contribute to making their fatherland, abandoned by spirit, into the gaping jaws of Asia that would like to swallow our little Europe.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Kindliness, friendliness, the courtesy of the heart, are ever-flowing streams of non egoistic impulses, and have given far more powerful assistance to culture than even those much more famous demonstrations which are called pity, mercy, and self-sacrifice.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Error has made man so deep, sensitive, and inventive that he has put forth such blossoms as religions and arts. Pure knowledge could not have been capable of it.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What an age experiences as evil is usually an untimely reverberation echoing what was previously experienced as good--the atavismof an older ideal.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are the terrible ones who carry about in themselves the beast of prey, and have no choice except lusts or self-laceration. And even their lusts are self-laceration.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I cannot believe in a God who wants to be praised all the time.
Friedrich Nietzsche
If virtue goes to sleep, it will be more vigorous when it awakes.
Friedrich Nietzsche
