More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
One had better put on gloves before handling the New Testament. The presence of so much filth makes it highly advisable.
Friedrich Nietzsche
What do I care about the purring of one who cannot love, like the cat?
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
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
What is life? A continuous praise and blame.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A light has dawned for me: I need companions, living ones, not dead companions and corpses which I carry with me wherever I wish. But I need living companions who follow me because they want to follow themselves- and who want to go where I want to go.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We often refuse to accept an idea merely because the tone of voice in which it has been expressed is unsympathetic to us.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A philosophical mythology lies concealed in language, which breaks out again at every moment, no matter how cautious we may be.
Friedrich Nietzsche
One is most dishonest to one's god: he is not allowed to sin.
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
Every characteristic absence of spirituality, every piece of common vulgarity, is due to an inability to resist a stimulus - you have to react, you follow every impulse.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When we have a great goal we are superior even to justice, not merely to our deeds and our judges.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Of all evil I deem you capable: therefore I want the good from you.
Friedrich Nietzsche
History belongs above all to the man...who needs models, teachers, comforters and cannot find them among his contemporaries.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Today as always, men fall into two groups: slaves and free men. Whoever does not have two-thirds of his day for himself, is a slave, whatever he may be: a statesman, a businessman, an official, or a scholar.
Friedrich Nietzsche
When one gives up Christian belief one thereby deprives oneself of the right to Christian morality. For the latter is absolutely not self-evident: one must make this point clear again and again, in spite of English shallowpates.
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
Thinking about suicide is a potent consolation: it helps us to get through many a bad night.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Every true faith is infallible. It performs what the believing person hopes to find in it. But it does not offer the least support for the establishing of an objective truth. Here the ways of men divide. If you want to achieve peace of mind and happiness, have faith. If you want to be a disciple of truth, then search.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Society tames the wolf into a dog. And man is the most domesticated animal of all.
Friedrich Nietzsche
