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.

More quotes by Friedrich Nietzsche
Human existence basically is──a never to be completed imperfect tense.
Friedrich Nietzsche
THE SLOW ARROW OF BEAUTY. The noblest kind of beauty is that which does not transport us suddenly, which does not make stormy and intoxicating impressions such a kind easily arouses disgust but that which slowly filters into our minds.
Friedrich Nietzsche
There are various eyes. Even the Sphinx has eyes: and as a result there are various truths, and as a result there is no truth.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Christianity in particular should be dubbed a great treasure-chamber of ingenious consolations, such a store of refreshing, soothing, deadening drugs has it accumulated within itself.
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
Every man in creating the beautiful appearance of the dream worlds is a perfect artist.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To be ashamed of one's immorality: that is a step on the staircase at whose end one is also ashamed of one's morality.
Friedrich Nietzsche
The most general deficiency in our sort of culture and education is gradually dawning on me: no one learns, no one strives towards, no one teaches--enduring loneliness.
Friedrich Nietzsche
A little health now and again is the ailing person's best remedy.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Not with wrath do we kill, but with laughter. Come, let us kill the spirit of gravity!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Ah, there are so many things betwixt heaven and earth of which only the poets have dreamed!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The form of a work of art, which gives speech to their thoughts and is, therefore, their mode of talking, is always somewhat uncertain, like all kinds of speech.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Without forgetting it is quite impossible to live at all.
Friedrich Nietzsche
Where I found the living, there I found the will to power even in the will of servants I found the will to be master.
Friedrich Nietzsche
That is an artist as I would have an artist be, modest in his needs: he really wants only two things, his bread and his art--panemet Circen.
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
Tragedy is dead! Poetry itself died with it! Away, away with you, puny, stunted imitators! Away with you to Hades, and eat your fill of the old masters' crumbs!
Friedrich Nietzsche
You shall become the person you are.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We talk so abstractly about poetry because all of us are usually bad poets.
Friedrich Nietzsche
To become wise you have to want to experience certain experiences, and so to run into their open jaws. This is very dangerous, tobe sure many a wise man has been eaten up in doing so.
Friedrich Nietzsche
