More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
No victor believes in chance.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Everything that is profound loves the mask: the profoundest things have a hatred even of figure and likeness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Egoism is the very essence of a noble soul.
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
The trodden worm curls up. This testifies to its caution. It thus reduces its chances of being trodden upon again. In the language of morality: Humility.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Christian faith from the beginning, is sacrifice the sacrifice of all freedom, all pride, all self-confidence of spirit, it is at the same time subjection, self-derision, and self-mutilation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To demand of strength that it should not express itself as strength, that it should not be a desire to overcome, a desire to throw down, a desire to become master, a thirst for enemies and resistances and triumphs, is just as absurd as to demand of weakness that it should express itself as strength.
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
Thus the man who is responsive to artistic stimuli reacts to the reality of dreams as does the philosopher to the reality of existence he observes closely, and he enjoys his observation: for it is out of these images that he interprets life, out of these processes that he trains himself for life.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What else is love but understanding and rejoicing in the fact that another person lives acts and experiences otherwise than we do?
Friedrich Nietzsche
What is life? A continuous praise and blame.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Surrounded by the flames of jealousy, the jealous one winds up, like the scorpion, turning the poisoned sting against himself.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Be your self! All you are now doing, thinking, desiring, is not you yourself.
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
Every great love brings with it the cruel idea of killing the object of its love so that it may be removed once and for all from the wicked game of change: for love dreads change even more than annihilation.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The thirst for equality can express itself either as a desire to draw everyone down to one's level, or to raise oneself and everyone else up.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Children from humble families must be taught how to command just as other children must be taught how to obey.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To explore the whole sphere of the modern soul, to have sat in every nook- my ambition, my torture, and my happiness
Friedrich Nietzsche
You gave him an opportunity of showing greatness of character and he did not seize it. He will never forgive you for that.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Many a peacock hides his peacock tail from all eyes--and calls it his pride.
Friedrich Nietzsche
